  Exceeded my expectations....small producer just south of Walla Walla. This area is producing some really good sangiovese. This wine had a lovely floral, cherry nose. The palate was a nice combination of sweet dark cherry and peppery spice. Medium bodied, dark red color, smooth texture. Really good acidity and went excellent with whole wheat pasta and meat sauce. Good price point too....wish I had bought more. Drink now or over next 3-4 years. 89+

  85% Sangiovese, 10% Syrah, 5% Viognier
  After 2 hours aeration: Fruit forward with a nice amount of acid to balance the big fruit. Intricate complexities on the finish with hints of spice and plum, lots of black cherry, earth and cedar.
  Drink now or over the short term
  Consistent with bottles tasted 3/10 & 8/10
