Hard to know if I’m tasting the wine as a whole or distinguishing the constituent parts of the blend.
Rainier cherry, heirloom grape tomatoes, jersey milk chocolate, charred oak.

First sip way underdeveloped decanting necessary. Two hour decant leave wine somewhat dry and earty very drinkable.

Apr 1st, 2021I like it. 70% Sangiovese 15% sagratino 15% merlot. Slightly flabby. But good enough balance. Nice tannins. Cherry, strawberries. Not a great nose. Would buy again.

70% Sangiovese and 15% Sagrantino and Merlot. Had with with telaggio cheese sauce pasta and of course Italian sausage. Full bodied wine with notes of plum, blueberries or boysenberries. A bit of tannins offered by the Sagrantino. A good table wine that will make it through the long haul. Maybe revisit in five or ten years.
