Sonoma County

Medium

Natural Cork

Leads with a very bright, heady, lifted red-stone minerality, marked by red currants, plum skin, and fresh herbs with hints of nutty oak. Very lovely, sweet red berry fruit is plump and silken in texture, underscored by firm cedary tannins building in intensity and finishing with tobacco and intriguing exotic brown spices, salted liquorice, and dried minty herbs. Situated above Sonoma Valley in the Moon Mountain AVA, organically farmed vineyards and olive groves surround wine caves. This Sangiovese comes from their Poggio alla Pietra estate vineyard, which translates to 'Hill of Stone' and was founded by the late Lorenzo Petroni. The winemaker is New Zealand native Martin Mackenzie.
