Pronounced aromas of pomegranate, blackberry, cherry, raspberry, and toasty vanilla with subtle layers of dried herbs and savory tomato leaf. Medium-bodied with spicy herbs, lush fruit, and a tanginess on the palate. Great energy and balanced tannins provide a long finish with persistent fruit flavor.
92 The Somm Journal Ripe, vivid red-berry fruit gets an elegant lift from fragrant red currants, a hint of citrus oil, and underpinnings of warm earth and brown spices. Gushing with juicy boysenberry and tart cranberry notes, this wine—which aged 16 months in (16% new) French oak—is framed by elongated, grippy tannins; cedar spices; and zippy acidity that dissolves into a long, berry- driven finish hinting at cocoa powder and pink peppercorns.
90 Wilfred Wong of Wine.com COMMENTARY: The 2018 Borreo by Silverado Vineyards Sangiovese is bright and lively. TASTING NOTES: This wine brings beautiful red and black fruit to the fore. Pair it with grilled lamb chops. (Tasted: June 20, 2021, San Francisco, CA)
90 Wine Enthusiast This is a soft, pretty and succulent red that offers a mix of bright fruit against a leathery texture. A blueberry pie richness seals the balanced finish.
