The 2012 Somni, a blend of Cari?ena and Syrah from the estate vineyards, matured in new French oak barriques for one year. Even though the oak is still present, there is nice complexity and typicity revealing earthy notes of graphite and peat that lend some rusticity and character. The fruit is ripe and black rather than red, and the palate is powerful and concentrated with some vanilla flavors. It seems to still need some time in bottle. 4,395 bottles produced.
