Inky and brooding, with waves of dark cherry, espresso and tobacco leaf flowing through. The old vines deliver serious concentration and grip. Bright floral notes from whole cluster work lift the wine's considerable weight. Firm tannins demand cellaring through 2030.

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.
