Extremely good Sonoma “Bordeaux Style” (Left Bank) Blend! Grapes are from the MacAllister Vineyard on the Sonoma side of Mt. Veeder. Aromas and flavors of Raspberry, Cassis and Spicy Oak. A bit of chocolate and mint on the long finish. Well structured and balanced. Excellent! Revisited this wine on May 2020. Still noticing all of the above along with strong notes of vanilla on the nose and pallet this time. Revisited this wine again in Nay 2023. Vanilla not as noticeable in this bottle and the tannins have softened considerably.
