Nose
A bold, characterful nose is fuming with licorice, cedar, cured tobacco leaf, and black olives.
Palate
A silky and lush mouth-feel follows with layers of black fruit, chocolate, cola and glazed brown sugar.
Growing Conditions
Our 4-acre hillside vineyard is always low-yielding and that’s its strong suit; producing rich concentrated fruit that plays beautifully off the more balanced acidity that was prevalent in 2009.
Aging
24 months in American oak.
