Palate
Dark cherry and flavors of espresso, cocoa powder and sandalwood give this wine a robust mouthfeel. Truly a terroir driven wine with refined tannins, this beast is big and brawny, yet beautifully balanced.
Harvest
A mild wet winter led to a cool wet spring. With bud break at a near normal pace we headed into June with yet more rain. July and August really heated up with temperatures over 100°F and smoky skies. September revealed ideal conditions for a beautiful uneventful harvest.
