2015 Discovery Road Il Minestrone

Il Minestrone is exactly what the name suggests—a harmonious blend, layered and warming like the classic Italian dish it’s named after. This vintage pours a medium red with a tawny hue, a visual cue of its evolution. The aromas are lifted and inviting, with notes of apple crumble, stewed plums, and baking spices weaving together to create a rich and comforting bouquet. On the palate, it is incredibly soft and round, yet maintains a structural elegance, thanks to its dry tannins and nutty complexity. A food-friendly red with an intriguing personality, it’s a perfect companion for a slow-cooked meal or a long evening with friends.
