Our 2021 Cuvee 32 is the 24th vintage of this blend for Trentadue Winery. In retrospect our "Super Tuscan" blend has been highly successful and consistently our top selling wine in the Tasting Room. Every vintage has a uniquely different blend determined by the best expression of its components and how they work together. Our young Montepulciano has become an important player in the blend as well as our Brunello Clone Sangiovese. This vintage does not have Malbec in it or Syrah. The 2021 Cuvee 32 has intense cherry/cassis aromas contributed by the Sangiovese followed by deeper red fruit aromas of plums, blueberry, and a hint of pomegranate. With more air the wine shows more complex yet still in developing stage aromas and flavors of cocoa, cinnamon, leather, and black licorice. The mouth feel is medium to full with relatively high, food friendly acidity and a long and fresh finish. Drink now through 2030.

Velvety and polished, this is a deft blend based on Sangiovese grapes. An appetizing tannic grip on the palate frames nicely layered cherries, plums and raspberries that show good depth and length. While technically full bodied, the wine feels light on its feet.

A blend of Sangiovese, Montepulciano, Merlot, and Malbec, the deep red 2021 Cuvee 32 La Storia is lifted with tarry aromas of scorched earth, baked cherry, and red flowers. Full-bodied but not heavy, it has fine tannins and a soft texture. It's a straightforward wine on the palate, with ripe mixed berries and a light herbaceous edge. Drink it over the near term.
