Winemaker Notes
Luscious black raspberry and mixed berry pie aromas entice the senses. Aromas carry through the palate with a soft entry lifted by subtle baking spices, brambly heather and supported by pliable tannins. On the finish the wine is buoyed by a gentle lift of acidity, balancing the warmth of the vintage with vibrancy from cooler climate fruit. This wine will pair nicely with hearty dishes like short ribs, velvety pork belly, or luxurious gnocchi gorgonzola. This wine is a vivid expression of the cooler growing season, where crisp, freshly picked fruit flavors shine, beautifully preserved by cool nights and an extended ripening period, yielding perfectly mature tannins.
