Tasting Notes
Deep garnet with ruby highlights showcases this wine's concentrated character in the glass. The nose opens with layers of dark plum, blackberry, and cassis, complemented by hints of cedar, vanilla, and subtle baking spices from its extended oak aging. On the palate, rich dark fruit flavors meld seamlessly with notes of cocoa, leather, and dried herbs, while well-integrated tannins provide structure without overwhelming the wine's natural elegance. The finish is long and satisfying, with lingering notes of dark chocolate and a whisper of Santa Ynez Valley's signature minerality.
