ACCOLADES
- "A gorgeous wine from this warm vintage, the 2021 Sangiovese comes off bold and rich with refined tannins and a seamless sense of mouthfeel. Blood orange and pomegranate seed flavors combine with suggestions of dill and baking spices. Smooth and soft, enjoy now and over the next eight to ten years. Drink 2024-2032" Owen Bargreen
