Gun Metal continues to be Jerry's strongest showing, out of several quite impressive years at Guardian, across all wines. Outstanding representation of his blending skills!

Really well done and balanced. The vanilla is melo against the oak & paired well with a marinara spinach ravioli. Was thinking different and set me right, wish they all were this good.

A Cab Sauv, Merlot and Petit Verdot Boudreaux blend. Raisin in color, sturdily built, black currant on the nose, stony mineral full bodied mouth, and spice lead into refined tannins on the finish.
