  Crunchy red cherry over deeper blackcurrant and blackberry, alongside cedar, purple florals, tonka bean, amber cologne… oh my this is fully haunting. The Sangiovese is more present on the palate, with rich balsamic-vinegar undercurrents, alongside loads of graphite from the Cab, with drying and rather intense tannins at first – my tongue is stuck to my gums. Maybe give this a few more years to unwind a bit, because that aroma is unimpeachable.

  I was looking forward to drinking this field blend of 30% Montepulciano, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Sangiovese, 10% Marselan, and 10% Alicante Bouschet. However, the flavors I encountered were a sweet note of maraschino cherry, plus cedar, baking spices, new leather and charred barrel. In other words, this wine had lots of oak on it. Was this use of oak covering the poor quality of the fruit? Hmmm...
