Tasting Notes
This Italian-inspired blend opens with a well-integrated nose of fresh raspberries and cherries jubilee followed by notes of cedar and tarragon. The touch of Malbec adds a bit of depth on the palate showcasing flavors of blackberry, complimented by the addition of cranberry and fig notes from the Sangiovese. The flavors follow with rich, red fruit complemented by a balanced body and lingering finish.

Winemaker Notes
Once harvested, we crush into stainless steel tanks to begin fermentation. We heat up to an ideal fermentation temperature and perform pump overs at least twice a day during primary fermentation. Once primary fermentation is complete, we barrel the wine down to French oak barrels to complete malolactic fermentation. The wine is racked three times to "clean up" the wine and allow homogenous blending, then put back down to French oak. The blend of the wines is based on a barrel-to-barrel selection of only the best barrels for this Napa blend.
