A delightful expression of the terroir, with its soft, lush, ripe notes of blackberry jam, hints of cocoa and a touch of spice. Made from 100% estate grown grapes.
 
Winemaker Note
Garnet color. Aromas and flavors of roasted cherries and nuts, cocoa, hint of crispy bacon, and balsamic roasted mushroom with a silky, bright, fruity medium body and a smooth, medium-long finish with notes of spiced and chocolate covered cherries, toasted beets, cherry cola, and dried leaves with a suggestion of oak flavor. A nice example on Monterey Pinot with bright ripe fruit, silky texture and tannins delivered in a tidy package.
