Tasting Notes
Garnet color with aromas of black cherry, pomegranate, peppercorns, and baking spices. The texture is velvety and round, with a lingering finish. Tart and sweet red fruit flavors excite the palate with more subtle notes of cacao and vanilla.
Winemaker Notes
Handcrafted from high-quality vineyards in California’s coastal regions — from Monterey and San Benito in the central coast, to Suisun Valley in the north. The diversity in soil and climate from these AVAs contribute to this wine’s remarkable balance and depth of character. Grapes are harvested at optimal ripeness and then destemmed in order to express bright fruit flavors and maintain freshness.
