Siena has unique aromas of strawberry and raspberry. We blend the Sangiovese with Malbec and Cabernet Sauvignon to add support to the mouth-feel and body.<br /><br /><br /><b><i>Vintage Notes</i></b><br /><br />Great weather during bloom set the stage for yields to be at or above target levels. Due to the great crop levels, we were able to thin the fruit to assure maximum quality. Heat events in late August and early to mid-September jump-started harvest and required focus to assure that the winery received fruit at its optimum quality. Harvest began in late August and was completed the first week of October.<br /><br /><b><i>Winemakers Notes</i></b><br /><br />Siena reflects the Ferrari-Carano Italian heritage by combining the Italian grape, Sangiovese, with Sonoma County&#8217;s finest grapes.
