This venerable wine company with a A type representative. I think it is a good thing because it keeps an old established winery from becoming complacent in their methods. Lots of passion for wine and it shows.
Seghesio Barbera 2007 as with most of the wines in this group there was a lot of juicy, mouth filling fruit, not heavy in the oak tannin but showing well with the fruit . a little soft mocha on the finish.
Seghesio Sangiovese 2006 not the brickish looking wine from Italy again this one was all about the California sunshine. bright jammy fruit with a slow finish.
Seghesion Old Vine Zin 2006.. great spectator press..and their old vines mean old vine. the family has been doing wine for over a century. dark purple in the glass and dark fruit nose, not overly briary but nice pepper.. and with all the zins going high alcohol this one was on the money, not too hot at all.
Seghesio Petite Sirah 2005 their Petit had always been a blended wine, this time they have made it the varietal. huge color, very berry flavored interesting coffee, smokey finish.
