Fruit comes principally from the Walla Walla Valley from Yellow Bird vineyard. Aromas of sweet berry fruit with some gentle spice. On the palate flavors of raspberry with cacao, vanilla oak & a bit of pepper spice. Soft tannins, lingering ending with sweet spice notes. Nice! Tasting Sample.

Cherry cola flavor. Peppery nose. Maybe some blackberry. More intense than just grenache.
