Tasting Notes

This vintage opens with a stunning pop of red fruit-raspberry and cherry-characteristic of the vineyard, combined with notes of black licorice, clove, and earthy dust. Juicy and approachable, its concentrated flavors are balanced by elegant floral notes and natural acidity, leading to a long, persistent finish with rich tannins.

Vineyard Notes

The Quicksilver Vineyard lies on the western Rutherford bench, in the acclaimed area on Bella Oaks Lane. The soils are predominantly well drained loams that produce vines of moderate size. These older vines were planted to the California sprawl system, with wider spacing and a divided canopy, giving great exposure to the fruit. Minimal irrigation is needed to obtain maximum fruit potential.
