Well-packed, with some zesty loganberry and mulberry fruit flavors mixed with a sleek cassis note, all framed by a robust apple wood frame. Shows a long tarry streak on the finish, as the vibrant fruit stretches out with it. Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Best from 2024 through 2035. 959 cases made.

Beautiful aromatics of camphor, new leather, dried herbs, and both red and black fruits give way to a full-bodied Cabernet with integrated oak, perfect balance, and silky tannins. Bravo!

Lots of juicy fruit in an old-school style. It’s full-bodied, dense and layered with lots of fruit and intensity. Ripe fruit with some pine-needle and conifer undertones.

Dusty sage, earth and dried herb meet a layer of cocoa powder and coffee bean in this intensely concentrated, big-boned wine. Soft, rich and round, it delivers resolved tannin and lasting grip amidst an array of dark brooding cherry and blackberry.

With 10% Cabernet Franc and 1% Merlot, this mountain wine is tannic and structured, with brawny, leathery black and blue fruit. Softened on the midpalate, it builds additional intensity toward the finish, ending in a note of clove, black pepper and toasted oak
