This wine displays a rich golden tone, with brilliant clarity. I find expressive aromas of
golden apple, figs and ripe pear. These aromas integrate nicely with richer aromas of
light caramel, truffle, and a nice complement of toasted vanillin oak. There is an earthy
tone that I find very appealing. On the palate, the wine is rich and full on the attack,
encompassed by a full-bodied creamy texture, which leads seamlessly into the
lingering finish.
Expressive and appealing, this full-bodied wine is bursting with richness and texture.Experience our traditional aromas of strawberry, cola, cinnamon and hints of graham crackers on the nose.

It is a celebration of the depth that can be attained with this varietal in Oak Knoll District. We find dark berry fruit, hints of spice and light toasted oak, vanilla tones on the nose in thiswine. On the palate the wine is very well balanced with depth on the mid-palate but also nuance and finesse on the finish. The attack is big, but is supported by layers of Flavors on the midpalate. The tannins are moderate, and the underlying fruit character is deep, so that this wine will evolve gracefully over time. The finish is big, and lingers with dark red berry fruit and toasted oak.

bestowed by an ability to produce serious red wines capable of aging majestically for decades.”
We think we have one for the ages!
Upon first opening, the wine has a wonderful spicy forest floor tone on the nose which evolves into dark and peppery black berry fruit aromas. These aromas are enhanced by toasted vanilla and caramel notes with hints of floral and light herb tones. On the palate, the wine is rich yet lively on the attack. A full-bodied mid-palate with well-structured tannins frame the wine nicely into the finish. The finish itself is long, with medium grain tannins and lingering flavors of boysenberry, blackberry, pepper, and vanilla.
