Wine of the Week: 2012 Ferrari-Carano 'Siena'

September 5, 2014

This is an incredible bargain at Costco as this wine is under 15 bucks and usually is priced around 20. Ferrari-Carano has made this wine for more than 20 years and it is consistent and well-priced for a Sonoma red, a blend of mostly Sangiovese, with Malbec, Petite Sirah, and Cabernet Sauvignon. Ferrari- Carano is one of the most beautiful wineries in Sonoma. The grounds are an architectural marvel and the wines that they produce mirror or exceed this incredible property. The 2012 version is fruit-forward and ready to drink, so it won't need any cellaring. Here's my pick for this week:
‪#‎ferraricarano‬

2012 Ferrari-Carano 'Siena'- Price is right on this attractive and complex red blend. Red cherry and dried sage with oak on the nose. The palate has fruit without being a fruit bomb. Red cherry, raspberry and blackberry jam. Nice balance in this crack and pour wine. Drink now. -89
