Wine Notes Print tech sheet

From one of Sonoma's most iconic Moon Mountain District vineyards comes this elegant expression of Sangiovese. Our inaugural release beautifully balances bright acidity with supple tannins, offering enticing notes of dried berries complemented by dusty, perfumed qualities that speak to its volcanic origins. The iron-rich, red soils of Monte Rosso impart structure that perfectly frame the vibrant fruit character of this classic Italian variety. While Monte Rosso Vineyard is renowned for its ancient Zinfandel vines and exceptional Cabernet Sauvignon, we're delighted to reveal another dimension of this storied site through our Sangiovese bottling – perfect for those who appreciate wines of balance, complexity, and sense of place.
