he 2018 Pitagora is aged on French and American oak for 16 months, and immediately greets one with alluring aromas of black cherry, cocoa powder, and bruised blue fruits. Lavish, rich flavors of plum, raspberry, warm tobacco spice, and leather delight the palate, with the silky weight of the wine bringing a spectacular finish.

The composition of this blend reflects varietals grown in different sub-appellations of Sonoma County. Each varietal and sub-appellation adds unique characteristics to the finished wine. This vintage highlights Merlot, with Syrah contributing fragrant spice nuances, Cabernet Sauvignon offering dark fruits and texture, and Petite Sirah adding density and peppery notes.
