We drank our second bottle tonight with a delicious take-out pizza dinner from our local Rosso’s Pizzeria. This wine is complex, delicious, and interesting. It probably has a few more years left on it, and it is definitely a wine that gives voice to the wisdom of Italian field blends!

This wine is quite extraordinary. It leads with Syrah but definitely tastes of Sangiovese. The blend is robust with an incredible nose (we think that is provided by the Black Muscat and possibly the Petit Syrah). What an incredible wine from the sophisticated winemakers at Acorn. Delicious, rich fruit profile is complemented by deep minerality and complexity. Decant for best results!

This wine is the only Acorn wine in which the blend is assembled in the winery rather than in the field. Red fruits (bright sweet cherry and strawberry) with a little citrus peel and clove. Moderate acidity. Nice drink.
