Full and expansive tannins emphasize this wine's mountain origins, the “crown jewel,” as the name indicates, of the winery's portfolio. Ripe cassis and black cherry flavors are accompanied by dill, coconut and vanilla hints. This is a wine for fans of a big style.

Chocolate mocha and black fruit define this full-bodied, robustly made and oaked wine from a mountain appellation. Moderate acidity helps cut through the generous tannin and rich ripeness, finding a brushy dried sage note along the way.

Red and black licorice figure into the soul of this softly smooth and likable mountain wine. Classic in its approach, and relatively medium bodied, it's lithe and elegant in texture, with faint traces of cedar, graphite and crisp currant.
