Tasting Notes

Scipio 2017 is a rich, deep and complex wine that interprets what was a particularly warm and sunny year. The taste reveals a great balance due to a high natural acidity that gives a pleasant freshness and firmness.

“It is opulent with blackberry compote, eucalyptus, cedar, and sweet tobacco. Plush and polished, it has full body, velvety tannins, a ripe core of concentrated blue and black fruit, and a long finish. Its oak is wonderfully integrated and balanced, and the wine is impressive without being overblown. This exceptional wine is drinking beautifully now and will continue to improve over the following 15 or more years.”

Audrey Frick, January 2023

Made entirely with Cabernet Franc, this offers aromas of toasted oak, green bell pepper and ripe dark-skinned fruit. The dense palate features black-currant jam, clove and sage alongside grainy tannins and a tart, drying finish. Drink through 2027. Kerin O’Keefe
