WINEMAKER'S NOTES:
Blending multiple vineyards delivers a wine of great complexity with full, ripe fruit flavors, rich texture, and firm structure tempered with supple tannins for extended aging.
TASTING NOTES:
With a sumptuously inviting nose of nutmeg, clove and dark chocolate, this rich wine is blended with 14% Malbec and 2% Merlot. Dusty texture gives in to a core of soft, supple tannins that melt on the palate, finishing with length and breadth.
Wine Enthusiast, 92 pts
Nicely packed with plum, currant and blackberry purée flavors laced with black licorice and framed by a perfectly integrated alder note. Flash of sweet bay in the background, too.
