Hunt Cellars 2004 “Rhapsody” Reserve Sangiovese / Paso Robles

The Italians should take notice: Hunt Cellars delivers a memorable effort here. Bright, ripe strawberry, raspberry, and cherry dominate the nose, with complicating notes of butterscotch, spice, and leather rounding out the bouquet. The lush red berries return on the palate, unfolding into hints of caramel, smoky leather, and spice. Very elegant and with great depth, this is a perfect wine for any holiday Italian dinner.
