Tasting Notes
This expressive California Red Wine, primarily crafted from Zinfandel, is semi-sweet in style, offering a lush and approachable profile. It opens with enticing aromas of sun-ripened blackcurrant, wild sage, and hints of mocha-dusted blackberry. The palate is layered with rich flavors of dark cherry, plum compote, and subtle notes of toasted vanilla and graphite. Full-bodied and polished, it boasts firm yet velvety tannins and a long, resonant finish, making it an ideal red for those who enjoy bold fruit with a softer, sweeter edge.
