REVIEW
Rated 94, Bruce Sanderson, Wine Spectator, October 15, 2024
"Broad and rich, with plum, cherry, pomegranate, leather, earth and oak spice flavors permeating the lush texture, all buoyed by bright acidity and a dense matrix of tannins. This red finishes on the crisp, compact side today but should open up in a year or two. Sangiovese and Colorino. Best from 2026 through 2042. 2,000 cases made."
