Seghesio 2008 Omaggio Red (Sonoma-Napa)

Country: US / Omaggio
Variety: Red Blend California
Winery: Seghesio / Sonoma-Napa

This is the winery’s highest-end bottling, this year a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Sangiovese, from Alexander Valley and Mount Veeder. It’s charming to drink now, with deep, impressively ripe blackberry, blueberry and dark chocolate flavors wrapped into soft, thick tannins. The finish is dry. Despite the deliciousness factor, it should hold and develop for at least six years.
