The 2012 Timberline is eccentric and full, definitely a delight for the senses. The nose explodes with dark fruits and meatiness, laced with white pepper and hints of cotton candy. In the mouth, fruit abounds and is complemented by a matrix of black pepper and firm tannins with a surprising note of coconut jelly beans. This ever-evolving wine is approachable now and will be enjoyable over the next five years.
91.5% Zinfandel, 6.6% Petite Sirah,
.7% Barbera, .5% Primitivo, .5% Mourvedre.
