JS95 James Suckling was especially impressed with the reds from 2018, loving the added depth and intensity on the center palate. Winemaker Dan Petroski took an excellent vintage to new heights by harvesting a little earlier and controlling the alcohol levels. This sings with berry, coffee and lightly toasted oak.
Estate Notes: The aromas, flavors and textures cast a wide reach on the nose and palate. From lavender and violets to Fuji apples and the bramble of a raspberry bush, the aromas are masterfully sewn together. As you linger with the wine in the glass and expose it to air, the wine leans deeper into the darker aromas of kirsch and graphite.
In the mouth, the flavors flow from the candied sweetness of chocolate covered cherries and red licorice on the front of the palate to macerated blueberries and blackberries on the middle of your tongue. It finishes with spicy, dried herbs and savory roasted meats on the back of the palate. As the overall juiciness of the wine dissipates in your mouth, it leaves a gentle dusting of cherry-flavored tannins that coat the palate and prepare you for a second sip.75% CABERNET SAUVIGNON 15% MERLOT 10% CABERNET FRANC .
