Solid rich Sangiovese with strong fruit, spice, and smooth tannin structure. This bottle has aged well, and I will keep my few remaining 2010’s for a while more.

Deep ruby color with rusty edges. Nice nose of cedar, cooked cherries, earthy tones. Pretty firm on the palate, medium-bodied, not smoothed out by age. Dusty cherry flavors. The finish is drying, long, with some tartness. A most worthy bottle that I am glad that I kept.

All Noceto Sangiovese wines serve well. Riserva is one of my favorites by far and even novice red wine drinkers seem to be impressed with this wine. This is one of my overall favorite wines. Its value vs. cost makes this a super great value wine.

Big and bold California sangiovese. I enjoy all of Noceto's blends, but the Riserva is my favorite ... well until their AX-1 came by. But Riserva is an incredible wine for the price from California's top Sagiovese maker.
