Black currant, blackberry and licorice flavors combine in this fresh, nimble red, showing harmony. The fruit notes linger, with a hint of wild herbs. Cabernet Sauvignon and Sangiovese. Drink now through 2028. 100,000 cases made, 18,000 cases imported.

The nose starts salty and umami, then turns peppery, then finally finishes with the sweetness of black cherries and blackberries. On the palate, the fruit elements flourish, while the sweet and sour of balsamic vinegar and resurgent pepper on the finish maintain the complexity. Acid glitters around supple tannins.
