Tasting Notes
The bucolic Kinght’s Valley AVA is nestled to the eastern edges of Alexander Valley and Chalk Hill regions. The 2021 Sangiovese from the Speedy Creek Vineyard is an excellet representation of this noble varietal from Tuscany. On the nose, aromas of ripe red and black fruits with subtle notes of anise flow from the glass. Flavors of dark cherry, black currant, vanilla, and black pepper please the palate. Drink now through 2027.
