Native Son Venturi Vineyard Charbono
Much lighter and elegant charbono than you might be used to (although, there aren’t a lot out there...). Medium bodied, not a lot of oak influence. -like a French Syrah met french gamay. Sweet-sour peach, a restrained exotic. Cranberries. Black table grape. Good acidity. Violets. 5-10yr and smoke could develop to take this to the next level!

Jan 24th, 2020A wonderful nose, well balanced already, deep hues of purple jammie. On the palate, very smooth and a little acidic, a touch of tannins- not offensive at all. It is a delicious flavorful full-bodied wine.

Jan 12th, 2021Complex notes on the nose but predominantly figs and blackberries. Very little acidity and surprising flavors of strawberries, rhubarb and milk chocolate
