TASTING NOTE: Lavarini has been crafting superb wines since they began operations in the 1970s, A really great example of this popular style. The grapes for this were hand harvested and fermented on their skins for 10 days. The wine is fragrant and spicy with red cherry, raspberry, baking spices, tar, and a delicate lifted floral note.
