Winemaker's Signature

2004 Alexander Valley 76% Barbera, 24% Sangiovese

Gallo Family Vineyards Winemaker's Signature is a captivating red blend that showcases the enchanting marriage of seventy-six percent Barbera and twenty-four percent Sangiovese from the esteemed Alexander Valley. This vintage, crafted in two-thousand-four, exhibits a deeply rich color that invites exploration. The wine is medium-bodied, striking a delightful balance between its acidity and the fruit intensity, which is both pronounced and alluring, offering notes of dark cherry, plum, and hints of earthiness. The tannins are notable yet smooth, providing a structured foundation that enhances the overall experience. With a dry profile, this wine is incredibly versatile, making it a wonderful companion to a variety of dishes or simply enjoyed on its own.

Region:


Sonoma County
Sonoma County

Many of California's world-class wines come from Sonoma County, separated from Napa by the Mayacamas Mountains. Three times the size of Napa, Sonoma is an incredibly diverse region. Cool coastal zones, fog-cloaked hillsides, sheltered valleys and craggy exposed peaks give Sonoma a vast array of terroirs and microclimates. Its many sub-regions produce a broad range of styles: from the bold Cabernets of Alexander Valley to the fragrant Pinots of Sonoma Coast and the sublime Chardonnays of Chalk Hill.
