A firm and full-bodied red with aromas of chocolate, blueberries, cassis, spearmint and praline. Polished and complex, with muscular tannins that give sturdy support to the dense black fruit.

I'd put the 2020 Estate Ferguson Vineyard up with the top wines in the vintage. Revealing a deep plum/purple color to go with a darker, meaty bouquet of blackcurrants, smoked tobacco, leather, and truffly earth, it hits the palate with full-bodied richness, a pure, elegant, layered mouthfeel, lots of building tannins, and a great finish. This structured, serious, age-worthy blend will benefit from 2-4 years of bottle age and should evolve for 20 years in cold cellars.

I love the sweet and powdery aroma that smells like blackcap raspberries got their own bubble gum. Earth and blood orange scents are a bonus. Blueberry gelato, dark chocolate and aged balsamic vinegar flavors seal the deal. Muscular tannins create a chewy texture.
 
Winemaker Notes
With a flavor profile distinctly influenced by its volcanic basalt soil, Ferguson is a richly structured and energetic wine offering complex, mineral-laced aromas of cassis, blackberries, fragrant violet, tobacco, and sandalwood. Layers of dark fruit and espresso are framed by expressive tannins integrated with crushed rocks and graphite on the palate. Intense, racy, and structured, Ferguson’s pronounced natural acidity carries through to a compelling and enduring finish.
