Note di degustazione
The 2015 Tierra (Sangiovese) is bright, nuanced and very nicely balanced, with plenty of character. Lifted, perfumed aromatics and bright red stone fruit are front and center in this very pretty and unique Ballard Canyon Sangiovese.

Pale to medium ruby-purple colored, the 2015 La Tierra de Jonata (made from 100% Sangiovese) displays lifted red cherries, red currants and plums on the nose with touches of sautéed herbs, fragrant earth and black tea leaves plus a waft of lavender. Light to medium-bodied, this is a fine, fresh, cleverly made wine, possessing elegant styling, finishing soft and refreshing.
More shut down than normal, the 2015 Tierra (100% Sangiovese) still has beautiful Sangiovese character, sweet cherry, spice and violets, with terrific typicity. It needs a few years of bottle age to come together. It’s always a fun tasting with winemaker Matt Dees and his team, and they continue to keep this estate at the top of the hierarchy in Santa Barbara County. Located in Ballard Canyon AVA, they pull only from their estate vineyard (planted on incredibly sandy soils) and make a wide range of cuvées, from a red and white Bordeaux blends, to a 100% Petit Verdot, Sangiovese and a number of terrific Rhône blends. The common thread is incredible quality.
