Country: US / Tesoro
Variety: Red Blend California
Winery: Muscardini / Sonoma Valley
This blend of Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah had no problem achieving ripeness. It explodes in blackberry, cherry, chocolate, licorice, teriaki beef, black pepper and sandalwood flavors that go on and on. The structure is a little too soft and weak to support all this weight, though. Drink now.
