Tasting Notes

This 10.85-acre (4.39-ha) vineyard sits at approximately 1,500 feet (460 m) above sea level with slopes varying from 10% to 25% across its east, south, and west aspects. Roughly 18 inches (45 cm) of soil sits on top of Monterey shale. 583 cases made.
Light to medium garnet. Smells of candied sour cherries and raspberries topped by floral aromas. Silky floral flavours of raspberry and cherry mix with cranberries as cotton-ball-soft tannins float through the mouth. Notes of candied dried flowers linger in the finish. Hard to pin down, but scintillating in its flavours and dynamism. Wow! Drink between 2020-2028.
