Winemaker Comments:
Beautiful and velvety, this luscious wine is delicious from start to finish. On the nose, the wine emanates a wonderful black pepper, anise and black cherry aroma. A few more minutes in the glass reveal chocolate, cardamom and leather components. With the first sip, this beautiful blend is decadent and rich with succulent tannins that are wonderfully integrated. The wine is balanced and fruit forward and yet has incredible backbone and acidity. This artful blend is truly a winemakers wine and displays the finest aspects of Dry Creek Valley grapes.
