Black cherry, blackberry, and blackcurrant aromas are complemented by hints of mocha and dark chocolate.  On the palate, the wine is silky in texture, but it has a delightfully surprising tannic grip.  Notes of espresso and dark chocolate-covered cherries stand out against a background of lush fruit flavors.  The lingering, complex finish promise a great future for this wine.

Speranza, Italian for Hope is the first of the 5 new wines we created to replace the 2020 red vintage lost due to the wildfires. Thanks to his strong relationships within the grower community, our Winemaker, Matt Reid, was able to source rare lots of 2018 and 2019 red wines to create something truly special. 

We are excited to introduce you to our new releases including the debut of the 2019 Tenaci, our second in the series of five wines created to replace the 2020 vintage lost to the wildfires. Tenaci is the Italian word for tenacity, perseverance, and resilience. 

Classic Sangiovese aromas of Bing Cherry, leather, and dried roses.  The wine is expansive on the palate, with a cornucopia of flavors including blackberry and pomegranate, with hints of dark chocolate and espresso.
