2019 Proprietary Super Tuscan
Member Price: $78 – $93
A blend of Estate-grown Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Merlot, and a touch of Petit Verdot, this wine is energetic and precise, with a focused, fruit-forward palate that is ready to drink now. The finish is unforgettably graceful with juicy, mouth-watering acidity.
Tasting Notes
This wine leaps out of the glass with aromas of strawberry and black cherry, dried herbs, and a hint of rose petal. Bright red fruit flavors of pomegranate and Bing cherry seamlessly meld with notes of vanilla, clove, and Bergamot leading to balanced acidity and a long finish. Approachable with lush flavors and great texture, each mouthwatering sip will continue to evolve. This wine is drinking well at a young age and will continue to mature in the bottle over the next 10+ years.
Vineyard Notes
The 2019 rainy season was punctuated by a fairly large rain event in May which allowed vines to grow and develop with low to no irrigation. The growing season was long and, towards the end, very mild. We were allowed to pick when the fruit was ready without having our hands forced by extreme heat or rain.We are extremely pleased with the quality and character of the resulting 2019 wines with bright, tropical white varieties and red varieties demonstrating richly saturated red fruit notes such as ripe raspberry and dark cherry with soft supple tannins.
