Winemaker Notes
Intense, dark and dense on the nose, with hints of ripe high-tone fruit, traces of stone fruit, ripe plum and red apple skin. Crushed wild berries, strawberry and boysenberry dominate the midpalate. Hints of bright acidity and minerality slide down the center palate and frame the mouthfeel. The core of mouthwatering fl avors melds to a captivating and lengthy finish.

Wine Spectator
Pure, ripe, intense and vibrant, with vivid blackberry and spice notes. Shows lively acidity, too.
