A gorgeous wine, it offers up-front red, blue, and black fruits as well as some smoky tobacco, scorched earth, and graphite notes.

Vineyards: 37% Discovery, 20% Klipsun, 15% Seven Hills, 13% Wallula, 8% Heart of the Hill, 7% Champoux 94 Points - Jeb Dunnuck Drink 2024-2040Īging: Aged 22 months in 50% new French oak Due to its top fruit pedigree and heavy Cabernet component, this wine should age very well. The palate is perhaps the most concentrated and complete yet for this wine, with deep dark black currant, plum, violet, savory herbs, licorice root, and mocha powder. This wine features a brilliant nose of blackberry compote, boysenberry reduction, mountain flowers, cigar box, vanilla bean, and crushed herbs on the nose.
