The 2021s from Futo are superb. Winemaker Jason Exposto told me that set was irregular, with lower bunch and berry counts than are the norm. In the cellar, Exposto gave the 2021s 24-34 days on the skins, commenting that the wines extracted easily. Aging is projected to be 20-21 months in oak. Unfortunately there are no 2020s.
