8.9

Ripe dark round blackberries, raspberries, cherries, strawberries, light dry earth, fine but decent presence of chalk, soft light sweet spice, pink florals and light baking spice. Finishes just a little short. 375ml. Label is slightly out of focus to bring out the beautiful coast of Big Sur.

Rich, sweet, dark fruit with notes of smoke, sea salt, ash, crushed rose petals, and a hint of maple syrup. This wine is elegant with a long silky finish.
