Product Description:
The 2019 Serie C shows an intense ruby-red color and a luminous, purple rim. On the nose, this assemblage is dense, offering alluringly fragrant layers of blackberries, cassis, and baked plums, perfectly balanced by a savory note of hoisin sauce. Opulent floral notes; violet and lilac harmonize with fresh juniper berries, pencil shavings, nuanced dark chocolate, and sweet, warm nutmeg. The palate reveals a lush, expansive entry with vibrant continuity. Fine-grained tannins embody a cashmere-like embrace, building on the fine and assertive structure. Plush black berry fruit is expressive and well-defined, with a long finish. Although the 2019 Serie C is alluring in its youth, it promises a decade and more to fully unravel.

Vinifikation A Tale of Two Seasons – Give and Take. In the shadow of ongoing drought, post-harvest 2018 rainfall remained absent. Towards the end of winter, rainfall made a resurgence and continued into spring and early summer. However, spring weather fluctuations contributed to uneven budburst and berry set. Moving into summer, conditions improved with a warmer November promoting vine growth. Ripening variation caused by the erratic spring conditions was mitigated by fruit selection post veraison, to maintain quality. Harvest commenced as per usual in February and progressed at a moderate pace and fine weather to the end of vintage. Mother Nature rebalanced the scales with beautiful, gentle rainfall immediately after our final fruit was picked. This bodes well for the 2020 vintage. A testament to the resilience of the wines, which, despite the vagaries of the weather, display freshness, concentration, and elegance. Matured for twenty-two months in 74% new French oak barriques, the remaining 26% in older French oak.
