2023 Ferrari Carano Siena Red Blend Sonoma County

Winery's Note The 2023 Siena opens with dried cranberry, figs, allspice, cream soda, and a hint of bacon. The medium-bodied palate is underlined by bold, juicy plum flavors, strawberry and toasted hazelnut. Composition: A proprietary blend of Sangiovese, Malbec, Petite Sirah, and Cabernet Sauvignon. The 2023 vintage was an overall cooler year with a wet winter including a heavy dusting of snow in vineyards late February. The year progressed with a cold spring, delaying bloom and a cooler than usual summer resulting in a later vintage, the latest we have experienced in the past two decades. These growing conditions produced wines with a brighter fruit profile and added complexity at slightly lower alcohols. The youthful character of the 2023 vintage indicates that these wines will hold exceptional aging potential.
