Price:
$31.00 per bottle
Description:
Our 2002 Napa Valley Sangiovese rivals the finest Italian Chianti in depth, power and complexity. Napa Valley flavor characteristics shine with bold concentrated black cherries, blueberry and crème cassis. The full ripeness and extremely small berries provided by the 2002 vintage resulted in the wonderful color, silky supple tannins and density of flavors that will enable this wine to age gracefully for 5 to 10 years. The intense fruit is balanced with waves of white pepper, vanilla, nutmeg, roasted walnuts, and a honeyed smoky cedar aroma that is difficult to describe. With decantation or time in the glass this wine unfurls to reveal enchanting wisps of pear blossom and lavender. The richness of this wine is not at the expense of the acid balance which enlivens the fruit, complements meals and increases the wine’s ageability.
