January 8, 2022 - A gift from Simone, owner of Pecorino's in Grafton MA (and yes, you should make a pilgrimage): this 2013 had a soft on the mouth feel in an unexpected way, yet the tannins jumped right out but faded to exceptionally well balanced when the spiciness took front stage. Black cherries and currants intermixed throughout with an equilibrium of oak. The finish was not long, but beautifully encapsulated this wine. Enjoyed with a grilled, dry aged steak and roasted peppers and potato's.

June 25, 2020 - 100% Cabernet Franc cuvee that is only made in exceptional years, 2 years in barrel and 2 in bottle only 500 cases produced. Named A Roman General who defeated hannibal and the elephants at the final battle of the second Punic War in 202 BC. big and chewy wine onthe tongue lots of tannins here with a good hand of fresh plowed black earth as well, this wine is a little monster, a great example Cab Franc!
