Classification  
Toscana – IGT 
Vintage  
2023 
Climate  
The 2024 growing season was defined by regular rain showers from the 
onset of budbreak forward. The month of April saw several cold spells that 
delayed vine development. May brought abundant rainfall that slowed down 
bloom; flower clusters began to emerge from the second week in June. 
Overall, July and August were hot and dry prompting excellent cluster 
development. The vines benefitted from good groundwater reserves from 
spring precipitation and the vines caught up to a normal pace in the growing 
season.  
The grape harvest got underway during the last half of August, consistent 
with the 2023 harvest.  
Vinification and aging  
A portion of the harvested grapes were destemmed, crushed, and very gently 
pressed to obtain a light-colored must. The other portion was destemmed 
and crushed and left to macerate for several hours in stainless steel tanks to 
best extract varietal aromas from the skins. The resulting must was chilled to 
a temperature of 10 °C (50 °F) to favor natural clarification. After 48 hours, 
the wine was transferred into stainless steel vats where alcoholic 
fermentation took place at a temperature that did not exceed 15 °C (59 °F). 
Giardino was aged in stainless steel tanks at a constant temperature of 10 °C 
(50 °F) to preserve aromatic compounds.  
Alcohol content  
12 % by Vol.  
Historical data  
High on a Tuscan hillside, not far from Siena and Perugia, sits the historic 
town of Cortona. A vast plain extends on one side and on the other, the hill 
and village. This is the captivating panorama surrounding the Santa Cristina 
winery, established in 2006 to strengthen and renew the tradition of crafting 
its eponymous wine, over 60 years after its first vintage. Over time, Santa 
Cristina has become a reference point for winemaking experts as well as wine enthusiasts due to our commitment to 
achieving quality. The diligent care taken in vineyards and cellar management have always been our incentive to continue 
with innovation and research in exploring indigenous as well as international grape varieties. The resulting family of wines 
are different yet highly distinguishable for their unmistakable artisanal style, proof of the enduring connection between 
vineyards, terroir and man’s dedication to the land.  
Giardino Rosé expresses the Tuscan countryside and its origins with delicate, graceful, and refined aromas and flavors. Its 
name celebrates its floral nature.  
Tasting notes  
Giardino 2024 is peach blossom pink in color. The nose is intriguing and pleasant presenting intense fruity notes of pink 
grapefruits and wild strawberries together with delicate hints of lime and forest floor. The palate is defined by a pleasant 
supple body sustained by excellent freshness. The wine closes with a persistent finish that echoes aromas perceived on the nose.

Definitely worth the read!
Format: Kindle
After taking a deep breath and taking in that wicked twist of an ending, I have finally composed myself. My first thought when I started this book was that I love Reyna's character. I was intrigued by her connection with her familiar and the Ruin that is plaguing her land. It came as no surprise that she took her sister's place in an attempt to protect her. When they reach the Air Court everything slows down. This is where it was iffy for me. First of all, I like multiple POV's in books however 7 is a bit much. It starts to interrupt the story line. I felt like I was finally making progress connecting with one character, then it was switched to another person. I felt they all had necessary or pertinent information but not necessarily were they all POV worthy. The only other thing that annoyed me was that Reyna constantly was " trapped." She would rush off without thinking, only to need rescuing. She is brilliant in a fight, but she really doesn't think through anything. Lorcan is amazing. I know he might be on the "bad" list, but his background is so interesting. Eislyn(Reyna's sister) is really so sweet, but calculating. I enjoyed her and Thane's dialogue. The author did an amazing job with the imagery in this book. Everything was so detailed it was easy to fall into the scene. I love unexpected twists and while part of the ending I expected, I wasn't expecting how it took place. All in all, I found it very entertaining and I am very invested in continuing this series. Favorite quotes: "The truth may be twisted but never false." "Who was she if she was not the enemy of the Air Court? What was her purpose of she no longer has that?" "In a war-torn land, love was always a lie."

Great Read!!! Great story!!!
Format: Kindle
The series is long, but Ms. Wolfhart does a fantastic job of weaving this tale while bringing so much to the characters. Surprises and plot twists along the way to keep you intrigued. There is some graphic sex, but is no way the focal point. Grammar was excellent (a rare find with a lot of self publishers) with only a few noted errors. I rarely give 4 stars, let alone 5.

Sadly, DNF
Format: Kindle
I read this thru KU. I LOVED the synopsis. And then I began reading... and it was a DNF at 68% after picking it up and putting it down several times because I really loved the main female character. *****SPOILERS***** Pros: The world is unique, intriguing and fun. The primary female character is bad-a** but not a b*tech or a mary sue. The primary female has depth. I really want to know what happens to her even tho it's been weeks and I don't remember her name. The villains to the point I read are pretty good -- an ever present threat of mysterious and possibly many culprits. Cons: Way, way too many points of view. I stopped counting at 7. It's the prime reason why I don't care about most of the characters or remember their names even when I like them. There's just too many points of view so almost none of the characters have enough book space for the author to properly develop them. This literally killed the book for me. Actually it killed my desire to read. For weeks. The main male is more villain than hero. He agreed to marry the main female then locks her up & eschews her for her sister, all while bad mouthing her as unfit to rule when he never spent any time with her getting to know her. He is actually unfit to rule as he is blind to the woes of his own kingdom and starts off a peace mission to secure a ceasefire through marriage by murdering an inn full of people in her country for no real reason. Plus, he constantly makes promises he does not keep. And it's gross of him to pine for the sister behind the main female's back. ***** As much as I really wanted to see what happened to the main female character, it wasn't enough for me to keep trying to slog thru this book. There was a lot of potential here that just fell short. Hence, 3 stars.

Fae Courts with High Intrigue
Format: Kindle
This book is one that just builds and builds and then surprises you to no end. You may think you know the villains and then you are jolted in another direction. Princess Reyna is a real gem, strong of character, a fierce fighter, and loyal to her family and kingdom. Just when you think she and Lorcan, well you know, the plot is flipped. Can't wait to see where this goes in book two.

Slow, sorry but good
Format: Kindle
This was a slow moving book. Lots of character pov chapters, lots of superfluous descriptions and endless courtly appearances stalled this book to start. Once you get into the heart of the story, it takes off. Before you know it the book is done. My favorite character is Reyna. She is so strong. She is true to herself. She gets into a lot of trouble with her headstrong ways but it's entertaining. I have high hopes for Lorcan. He is honorable to a fault. Thane had turned out to be better than I thought but i still don't like him. Eislin is useless. Great plot twists at the end. I'm looking forward too book 2.
