Blend from estate vineyards; Sanford & Benedict Vineyard (~44%) and La Rinconada (~56%), changes a bit year/year, aged 11 months in 27% new French oak, light Ruby color with aromas of tart fruit, spice and earthy notes. On the palate flavors of raspberry and cranberry with white flower notes and an array of spices. Fine dusty tannins, long finish ending with fresh fruit, spice and earthy tones. Good now!
