Ciao, mon ami, sell the rest to you.
Fruit is 50% Sangiovese and 50% Cab Franc co-fermented
THE STORY:
The sixth vintage of this originally accidental wine. Cab Franc and Sangiovese from the original Den Hoed plantings near Sunnyside in the Yakima Valley, co-fermented into a gorgeous fruit bomb of lightweight, exotic aromatics and Chianti characteristics. Aged 24 months in new and neutral French oak. A foodie’s dream come true. Should age beautifully just like my lovely wife, Tamara.
