Brutocao 2010 Quadriga Red (Mendocino)

Country: US / California
Variety: Red Blend
Winery: Brutocao / Quadriga

A mélange of Sangiovese, Primitivo, Barbera and Dolcetto, this wine offers a rustic personality harking back to the old country from whence all these varieties originally hailed. Big in structure and presence, the wine has more earthy, savory components than rich fruit and is sparse on the finish.
