Montepulciano Reserve 2021
The sun began to rise over the long stone bluff, warming the stone that protected the small patch of vines from the brisk winds sailing above. “Take in that sun my friend,” the old man in the vineyard thought, as he looked up to the bluff, “you need to keep us all warm tonight.”

Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
On the nose, we see a complex interaction of autumn leaves, sweet red pepper jelly, and brown sugar. On the palate, it is medium-bodied, with a zippy acidity lifting the initial flavors of spiced berries and smoked meats into a polished and perfectly resolved tannin.
Winemaker Notes
An appealing cherry hue, this special reserve wine hails from the award-winning Le Ziana Rouge Vineyard. This meticulously tended vineyard, which is consistently one of our most highly regarded, continues to deliver excellence.
Food Pairing Notes
A great pairing with eggplant parmigiana.
