The role of wine as a beverage sometimes gets forgotten; this is a wine that aspires (I assume, being presumptuous) to be that and nothing more, and it does that well. It's a wine I would reach for all the time.

Perfect summer wine, you could even serve this slightly chilled. Low alcohol, nice acid, and a light beaujolais body. #stolpman #ballardcanyon

What the what? Once you stop looking for the Sangiovese, this is just plain glou-glou delicious. On the patio with a burger? Hell yes.

Gulpable. Candied berries, beautiful acidity with classic Sangiovese tannic grit. Easy drinking for a hot summer evening.

Bright red fruit, light bodied, bright and airy, medium acidity, silky soft tannins. Would be very fun to pair this with food.
