White wine of same producer of our favorite Rose dei Frati from same restaurant.

Nice wine!

Ascona Vineyard Pinot Noir 2021

My group did not like this wine - 8 tasters. But they are wrong and not used to whole cluster wines. This is very nice especially next day! Complex, touch eucalyptus, orange peel, dark tart cherry, touch cardamom, hint mint, very tannic at the moment. Lacks a little bit of weight. — 8 months ago

Dunno what vintage this is but Cole makes great bleep and has a deft touch with Burgundian varietals. The Syrah regimen is solid but needs some detail. Like this vineyard's spice and depth of place/terroir. A producer to keep an eye on.

Ascona Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc

This light and refreshing SB is slightly sparkling, not so much as a Prosecco but enough to taste the bubbles on the tongue. It has restrained lemon rind flavors and is slightly sweeter than is typical for this varietal. — a year ago
