From the rugged slopes of the Santa Cruz Mountains, the 2023 Ascona Vineyard Sangiovese reflects both the character of the site and the natural vibrancy of the variety. Perched at 2,400 feet, the vineyard yields small clusters that develop concentrated flavors while retaining bright natural acidity. The result is a structured yet energetic Sangiovese — a wine that opens gradually in the glass with layers of red fruit, savory spice, and earthy complexity.
Tasting Notes: Bright cherry, wild strawberry, dried herbs, leather, and subtle baking spice. The palate shows lively acidity, fine tannins, and a savory mineral-driven finish that lingers with notes of red fruit and earth.
