The estate’s 2004 Chianu Carduni (Petit Verdot) is a unique wine imbued with the essence of super-ripe dark cherries, dried, cured meats and a wild, untamed personality. It offers notable intensity and plushness on the palate, with big, yet well-integrated tannins. Notes of menthol, sage and licorice linger in the long, sweet finish. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2019.
