"Immediate notes of freshly poured tar and soy sauce give way to wild strawberries, oven-roasted tomatoes and herbs on the nose, while the palate offers more strawberries along with cherries and a bite of salty dark chocolate. Sticky tannins and substantial acidity carry through a lengthy finish."
Winemaker Notes:
"Deep ruby at its core, the wine flashes bright red with every swirl. The aromas that delicately arise recall the long golden afternoons of summer - of salty caper flowers and fig leaves flourishing from sun-baked walls, of ripening figs and morello cherries with their ripe sweetness tempered by savory herbs, nepitella and oregano. Tannins are as firm as potter’s hands sculpting the wine into elegant shape. The finish is long and intricate, with the promise of further stories to tell. Enjoy our Sei, with time to spare, as this is a wine that must not be hurried."
