Picconero, a full-bodied blend of merlot, cabernet sauvignon, and petit verdot. Rich, concentrated, and muscular, yet wonderfully balanced with big tannins and deep tiers of cherry, plums, and wild berries, and nuances of spice, vanilla, and licorice. A long, flavorful aftertaste echoes with juicy fruit and mouthwatering tannins for minutes afterwards. Sensual and young, this wine promises a long life in the bottle. Some sediment may occur in the bottom of the bottle as the wine is not filtered. Learn More

A deft balancing act between luscious black fruit and herbal notes of black olive and fresh mint—the two sides of merlot. Currently the softest and most expansive on the palate with loads of blackberry leading the way. Velvet. Remarkably long finish that echoes the depth of fruit. Textured for immediate drinking pleasure, but structured also to reward a decade in the cellar. Such a pleasure to be able to offer this special wine after a long absence.
