This explosive nose lifts from the glass with intriguing aromas of sweet tobacco, cayenne and guajillo pepper, graphite and cedar, violets and dried rose petal. The palate is a continuation of the nose with Italian plum, bakers chocolate, black pepper and a prominent spice component leading to fine grain tannins and a long luxurious finish.

Light and silky, bright with cherry, raspberry and cinnamon, coming together harmoniously against refined tannins on the expressive finish. Best from 2016 through 2022. 8,000 cases made.

This bottling occupies the middle step between Ponzi's Tavola and reserve-level Pinots. The exceptional 2012 vintage delivers a wine with unusual concentration for its price. It presents a refreshing mix of briary berry, mineral, hints of chive, pepper, chocolaty barrel notes and a suggestion of yeast, and is finished with fine-grain tannins.
