Wine Release Archive - 2018 Sangioveses Riserva

Winemaker Notes
Thoroughly intriguing and complex, with hints of lavender, pungent rose, and cactus flower reveal waves of interesting floral aromas that are balanced against organic and savory suggestions of forest floor, cedar, and leather. Notably bold, powerful, and extracted on the palate while remaining incredibly elegant and tastefully rustic; exhibiting a perfectly executed combination of irresistible new-world ripeness and characterful old-world charm.
