The brothers Simi's pioneering efforts in San Fran, Sonoma, laid the groundwork for a long-standing tradition of winemaking excellence. Their commitment to quality and craftsmanship has been preserved over the years, with the construction of historic stone cellars in 1890 continuing to age wines to perfection. The result is a rich, full-bodied wine with layered red berry flavors, gentle smoky oak, and warm spice notes, ultimately leaving a delightful tail of toasty earthy tones.

Subtle and welcoming wine with a rich, gentle body and a round finish. The color is a deep, full bodied plum with a delicate undertone of red fruit, at the same time the nose is marked by touches of ripe berries, vanilla, and toasted bread. The impression is well-balanced, with a gentle level of freshness and a pleasing tannic structure. The aftertaste is long and satisfying, with a gentle suggestion of white pepper. Overall, a amazing wine that is easy to drink and comforting on its own.
