Winery Notes:

Dark garnet-purple in color. Presents a lifted bouquet with aromatics of plum and cherry combined with cedar box, dried herbs, graphite, mint and dusty earth. The wine offers a polished and alluring palate full of plum, dark maraschino cherry, roasted coffee bean, tobacco leaf, bergamot tea and subtle vanillin braced by a backbone of supple, dusty tannins. The structure builds to a lengthy, sustained savory finish balanced by the concentrated layers of fruit, dried herbs, and classic Rutherford soil-tinged minerality.
