Sipping Fine Wine

9.0

Surrounded by redwoods high in the Santa Cruz Mountains, DB Winery has enjoyed about 40 years of success in producing fine wines. Pale gold with aromas of honey, bruised apple fruit with toasty oak notes. On the palate ripe apple, vanilla and toasty oak flavors, extremely savory on medium+ finish ending with smoky character. Nice, should age a bit. Tasting Sample.

May have a touch too much oak for some of you but I like a change every now and then ...

Dark color is a dead giveaway it’s over-Oaked. Unbalanced too.
