Fourth wine for our wine pairing at Chef's Table this evening, paired with braised short rib ravioli.
Medium ruby red core with garnet edges. Layered nose with notes of lavender, black cherries, herbs and sweet oak. Medium tannins (5.5/10) with a delicate palate. Notes of roses, earth and black cherries. Medium bodied with a dry medium plus finish. Drink till 2021.

Intense sour cherry, not indicative of the varietal. Always been less fond of this than it's lesser cousin, 'Il Sestante' from the pianeti vineyard. I just find this one too tart for what it should be, and why would I pay more for something I enjoy less? I love tommasi and everything they make. I don't love this one.
