Podere Sapaio Podere Sapaio Volpolo 2021 750ml

A nose full of dark berries has savory undertones and a stony saltiness that keep things interesting. Berries carry over to the palate, while undertones shift sweeter and more citrusy, before a spicy nuttiness emerges on the finish. Balanced tannins and acidity provide warmth.

A taut, elegant red, with a pure beam of black cherry, blackberry, violet and mineral flavors. Balanced overall, with tannins unfolding as this winds down on the finish. Needs a year or two to open. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot. Best from 2024 through 2036. 7,500 cases made, 1,375 cases imported.
