"Appassimento" refers to a style of winemaking that involves drying out the grapes for a period of time to bring out a richness to the wine made from them. In this case the style produces a smoky, savory wine with flavors of grilled berries, tar and a bit of farmyard earth. You'll also find supple, bright fruit and a smooth finish with accents of craisins and spiced toffee. This is a fun wine with chewy tannins, moderate oak and a wonderful balance of bright fruit and smoky flavors.
