Pairing grilled red meats, lamb, game, aged cheeses
In the glass it shows a deep ruby color with good leg formation. On the nose it opens to a concentrated but controlled aromatic profile: ripe dark fruits such as plum and blackberry, accompanied by spicy hints and a light toasted note in the background. The intensity is evident without being aggressive, and the aromatic compactness discreetly reflects the 2021 vintage and the Californian provenance of the producer. Overall it offers a balance between fruit and structure, with a finesse that does not neglect depth.

On the palate it reveals full body and a tannic framework that is present but smooth, supported by acidity that maintains liveliness. Persistence is good and the finish remains on fruity tones with a subtle spice. It pairs with red meat dishes, roasts and aged cheeses; a short decanting before serving and a temperature of around 16–18 °C will help the aromas to express. The 2021 vintage shows potential for short-term further evolution in cellar; the wine seems versatile, suitable for both an informal meal and a more refined occasion.
