La Cuvée du Coteau – 2011; Calais Winery; Hye, Texas

Just over a decade later, this Sangiovese is still drinking quite nicely.  Sourced from Newsom Vineyards, this medium bodied red wine shows little color changes and still maintains a good amount of its flavor. The beautiful fruit shines through with ease with light coffee and a bit of oak notes. The tannins are still holding firm, so the grip will be there to remind you that it is still very much alive.  We think we will try another bottle in about five years and see how this wine continues to evolve. Santé!
