WINEMAKER’S NOTES:
Grapes for this wine were chosen solely for their quality and flavor. Working without sourcing constraints, our winemakers selected clusters contributing layered flavors of ripe red, blue and black fruit for rich, full-bodied structure and length. Underpinning these flavors are hints of new leather, brown sugar, spice and cocoa that wrap around a smooth mid-palate full of velvety texture and depth. On the long finish, you’ll find suggestions of toasty oak, vanillin and pepper framed by firm tannins.
