Tasting note

Napa Valley Sangiovese should open with tart cherry, red plum and dried flowers, with a little herbal lift above the fruit. Robert Pepi's 2015 bottling is expected to feel lively and firmly shaped, its bright acidity carrying the berry flavors while fine tannins add a lightly grippy texture. It is listed within its peak through 2026 and its window to 2032; expect a dry, savory finish that slowly moves from cherry toward spice.
