Tasting Notes

Vivid aromas of dark cherries and blackberries on the nose, with hints of flowers, mint and forest duff. On the palate, layers of dark and red cherry are later combined with mocha and vanilla components. The palate is smooth, with silky mouthfeel upfront and lingering hints of tartness on a delicate long pleasant finish.

"Deep, shimmering red. A complex, expansive bouquet evokes fresh red and blue fruits, incense and potpourri, along with building vanilla and baking spice nuances and a touch of cola. Concentrated yet lively in character, offering palate-staining black raspberry, cherry cola, spicecake and rose pastille flavors that are braced by a core of smoky minerality. Finishes appealingly sweet, smooth and impressively long, with repeating florality and rounded, even tannins." - J.R.

The backbone of this wine is the fruit sourced from our Lone Oak vineyard – a blend of clone 667 and a portion of our famed Orchestral block contribute silky tannins with hints of cherry surrounded by citrus and earthiness. The fruit from our Doctor’s vineyard adds a balanced acidity and tannins, leading to a round and elegant mouthfeel. Together, the blend makes for a delicious, voluptuous wine with a delicate finish.
