A super-premium, Brunello-style Sangiovese, Noceto's AX-1 is the result of many years of experimentation to produce a California Sangiovese to rival the best Brunellos and Riserva Sangioveses from Italy. Gentle treatment has been the focus of the entire winemaking process -- from a gentle crushing of the grapes and a 10-14 day fermentation in new French oak puncheons to preserve the bright varietal flavors, to 36 months of aging in the same puncheon to soften youthful tannins and gently age the wine, and finally an additional 2-1/2 years of bottle aging. The result is a fruit-packed, full-flavored, complex wine with a lingering finish, exhibiting flavors of dark plum and cherry, leather, earth, and mushroom. It should pair well with rich dishes as beef stroganoff, cassoulet, Moroccan lamb stew, or steak au poivre.

Double Gold Winner, 95 Point Wine
"Nicely concentrated and ripe-tasting, this full-bodied wine is a standout. It shows great structure, wrapping good acidity and fine-grained tannins around red-cherry, raspberry, earth and new leather flavors. It's already been aging in the winery cellar, but should keep developing through 2024."

SPECIAL AVAILABLE IN THE TASTING ROOM ONLY
"This huge, heavy bottle contains a hugely flavorful but not heavy wine. Complex oak, spice, and bramble aromas lead to vivid sour cherry and raspberry flavors that are firmly framed by moderate tannins and a slight acidic bite. It's a special occasion wine from old, old vines that will pair especially well with Italian food and grilled meats." Jim Gordon
