Rated vintages

  • 201081 pts

    This wine is a bombast of sweet liqueur and vanilla-infused candy, dusty with a sour finish.

  • 200887 pts

    Small pockets of Aglianico persist in the Foothills with mostly good results. This wine upholds the effort in its boysenberry jam, vanilla and strong tannic structure. Heavy shouldered with a foundation of acidity, pair it with a steaming lamb roast encrusted in herbs.
