This wine is 100% varietal coming from one of the top vineyards in the state. Reserved aromas of spice box, blackberry, barrel tones and gun smoke lead to elegantly styled fruit flavors. There are some interesting thing going on but they don't all come together at present.

The oak (83% new French and American) seems a bit overweighted for the fruit that's in the bottle on this 100% varietal wine. The notes of vanilla, cocoa and woodspice get out in front of herb and cherry flavors that seem slightly stewed.
