Delicious. So smooth. — 4 years ago
In 1877, Illario and Leopoldo Ruffino laid the foundations of their dream to make Italian wines from the heart of Tuscany. Medium Ruby with aromas of dark berry fruit and earthy spice. On the palate black cherry, blackberry and plum flavors with tobacco, pepper and earthy cedar notes. Full-bodied, well balanced soft drying tannins on a smooth medium+ finish. Grab some Italian food and enjoy the great value wine. — 4 years ago
Surprisingly bright and tropical for a Cali chard. Lighter body and slightly mineraly. Very pleasant — 5 months ago
Bought as a half bottle to pair with homemade crab cakes, asparagus, and pan-fried chips. Lovely pale yellow color, fresh citrus and grass aroma and taste (with a hint of my favorite: green bell pepper) with a moderate alcohol sting on the back end. — a year ago
Enjoyed this while making dinner and prepping for Thanksgiving meal. Loved the smoothness and slight berry flavor. Adam also liked it saying “no bite, I like it.” LoL — 4 years ago
Drank for 2024 anniversary alongside 2015. Very dry still, could have aged longer still. Nice fruit, cherry, berries. Very tasty. Might grab another. — a year ago

A lighter (14%) style. Bright Grenache fruit, lots of stony minerality. Pretty nice acids. Atypical but quite nice. — 4 months ago
