VINEYARD
Unti Vineyard lies in the heart of the Dry Creek Valley. The grapes are lovingly grown and hand tended by the Unti family. Long hot days and cool nights bring out the best in these grapes. Organic, biodynamically farmed and grown.
TASTING NOTES
Opens with floral and sun kissed fruit tones showing signs of long development. Decadent black fruit aromatics lead to crisp and wild red fruits, and finishes with savory tones of toasted anise and tomato leaf, spice of fresh espresso, white peppercorn and sweet nutmeg. It’s drinking very well now and will last over 10 years. You'll surely be rewarded if you lay a few down. Overall, a classic style of Sangiovese to pair with wide-range of fine Mediterranean Cuisine, including grilled vegetables, charcuterie, grilled fish, pasta, barbecued chicken, pork chops and rare to medium-rare meats.

93 Points, Wine Enthusiast
Dark fruit aromas of black raspberry, blackberry and black cherry steer the aromatics backed by baking spices, anise and lavender. A touch of Syrah to add tannin and depth. On the palate, black cherry and blackberry preserve shine through rounded out by herbs de Provence, dark chocolate and vanilla. A gorgeous expressive wine!
