Carneros, North Coast, California, USA
2013 vintage.
Chocolate covered cherries, blueberry pie, vanilla bean, graham cracker crust, violets and lilacs with a tiny bit of coffee bean on the nose. The palate is tart, eucalyptus, and the chocolate covered cherries are a little more sweet. I wouldn't recommend drinking this on its own due to the alcohol but damn does it do well with food (NY strip preferred).

Not sure why the high ratings for this wine. Struck me as pedestrian.
