Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
This delicate medium bodied Sangiovese is bright with cherry and strawberry jam aromas. We find a balance of rich flavors of spice and tobacco which leads to a clean and textured finish.
Vineyard Notes
Estate Vineyard to the west of our tasting room and production facility. Bilateral cordon trained into vertical shoot position (VSP). Clone 21 of Sangiovese was grafted onto 5BB rootstock. Planted in 2014 & 2015, the vines are young and full of energy. Pruning and shoot thinning were done to keep cluster counts in balance, leaves were pulled on the north side of the vine as the rows oriented east to west. 2017 was the first vintage we harvested fruit from this vineyard.
