    Named for Bob Biale's father Aldo, who maintained head-trained, dry-farmed vines planted in 1937, this red is as mighty as the man, with a length of powerful acidity. Cherry, blueberry and vanilla play against dried flowers and smoked meat, with a tanginess of Asian spice.

    Estate grown from an historic vineyard planted by the producer's father, this wine is velvety smooth and decked in chocolate, densely rich and delicious in caramel and blackberry pie. Enjoyable now, it has the legs and structure to age through 2025–2030.
