    Light in color, this wine offers aromas of dried herbs, fresh flowers and cherry. The style is light and elegant. It doesn't entirely stand up on its own but it should do well at the dinner table.

    Lighter in color, the wood is up front initially with notes of toast, spice and mocha, followed by jalapeno, green herbs and whole green pepper. It's elegantly styled with tart acidity and blocky tannins.

    Much the same blend as the winery's ‘Red' wine, only here the Sangiovese is replaced with Cabernet Sauvignon. Light flavors of black cherry and herb characterize a rather flat-lining wine with lots of acid.

  • 200785 pts

    Light red fruits, perhaps just a little stewed and herbal, with a soft mouthfeel and mocha-streaked finish.
