Winemaker Notes:

Initially, the aromatics of boysenberry and plum are dramatic and vibrant. A few additional minutes reveal deeper characters such as cocoa powder, espresso and leather, with hints of vanilla and white pepper. On the palate, flavors of blackberry and boysenberry shine with a rich complexity that is supple and harmonious. Spicy notes of black pepper, white pepper, allspice, and cedar support a smooth tannin structure and silky mouthfeel. The finish is elegant and refined, showcasing a balance of minerality and fruit, creating the desire for another mouthwatering sip.
