2008 ​Stillwater Creek Sangiovese

Brawny yet very genteel, this full-bodied Sangiovese, with soft round tannins, is dominated by black cherry with a touch of sour. Caramelized black raspberry and cassis, garnished with licorice and black olive add depth to the mid-palate while the earthy hints of finger rolled dried cigar tobacco and sun-baked garden hummus provide an added layer of complex exploration. ~Chuck Reininger, Winemaker
