Winemaker Notes

#54 Wine Spectator Top 100 of 2018. Ruby red in color, this wine offers a base of floral aromas enriched with spicy notes. On the palate, it is well-balanced, with good acidity, rich tannins and a silky texture. Persistent, wide and rich.

The sweet fruit and solid structure play off each other as this evolves. Starts with floral, cherry, strawberry and licorice flavors, melding into the firm, resonant tannins as the finish extends. Complex, balanced and set for a long life. Best from 2022 through 2036. Tasted twice, with consistent notes.

92 points James Suckling

A dense and polished red with dark berry, dried strawberry and black pepper aromas and flavors. Full body, polished tannins and a crisp finish. Drink or hold.
