Monthly Tasting at Wine Wizards (Wine Wizards Stockton): I want to support local wineries and this is a good wine but for $30 or less I can get far better Sangiovese. No flaws in this wine except for the integration of flavors. The cherry is there, the spice of wood is there, the tannin is there and they are not in total harmony. I would not avoid this wine on a wine list, it would good to try it over a meal and down the road it may come together. As for now not for my cellar.

Very nice Amador Co. sangiovese. Medium dark in the glass. Nice classic aroma of tart cherry and strawberry. Very nice silky mouthfeel. Cherry, strawberry and tomato on the palate. Very good acidity. Nice medium finish. Went great with our sausage, peppers and onions in tomato sauce and polenta. A little pricey, but it was their riserva and very well made. We'll definitely try more.
