2010 Stillwater CreekSangiovese |
We have cellared this wine for you. It is ready. Fresh raspberries and cranberries erupt from the glass with the first pour, then immediately morph into their darker counterparts. A soft palate with a little more than moderate acidity brings forth pomegranate, black raspberry, and plum with date and black olive, sprinkled with allspice, celery seed, and a hint of black pepper and cracked leather. The acidity hooks into the finish accentuating the black raspberry with a hint of raisin. This may very well be my favorite Helix Stillwater Creek Sangiovese.
