“This wine’s ripe apple simplicity has a cool feel, pointed up by smoky lees and mineral notes that lengthen the flavor. A broad and generous 2015, this is ready to pour for chicken with mushrooms and cream.” 90 points Wine & Spirits |

“A blend consisting of 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 25% Sangiovese, 15% Syrah, this has aromas of black currant, pipe tobacco and a whiff of purple flower. Vibrant and elegant, the medium-bodied palate offers succulent blackberry, crunchy red cherry, clove and star anise alongside polished, fine-grained tannins.” 91 points Wine Enthusiast |
