Sandlands Carignane (Lodi) 2019

Dark fruit and spice weave through muscular tannins that grip the palate with authority. There's compelling intensity beneath the structured frame, but this Carignane needs years to integrate fully. Cedar and earth emerge on the long finish.

Sandlands

Tegan Passalacqua's Sandlands focuses on old-vine California varieties, particularly from Lodi and Contra Costa County, making low-intervention wines from Carignan, Mataro, Trousseau, and Syrah that reward serious attention.
