Harvest Notes: A cool spring brought a mild summer with only one heat spike in the
first part of July. Fruit ripened under conditions that allowed a long hang-time
concentrating flavors with a strong backbone of acid and clean fruit.
Tasting Notes: A dark ruby color entices you with a nose of raspberry, cassis and loose
pipe tobacco. This full-bodied wine has an assertively silky structure and is notably spicy
on the palate.
