Blend of 74% Zinfandel, 15% Petite Sirah, 9% Carignane & 2% Mataro, aged in 100% air-dried American oak (10% new). Deep Ruby color with aromas of berry fruits, tobacco and earthy spices. On the palate flavors of blackberry and cherry with black pepper, tobacco, citrus spice and a touch of earthy herbs. Fine grainy tannins, long finish ending with fruit, earthy spice and some cedar. Nice!

So many flavors. Balanced. Perfect acid and tannins combination. Very long. Could easily age for years.

Garnet color. Medium plus tears. Pepper and leather on the nose. Pepper, red fruit, leather, minerality on the palate. Rich and complex to stand up to hearty meals.

Rich deep purple and clear in the glass. Complex black fruits a bit of tar. Served with grilled lamb loin with garlic rosemary and EVO. Wine will be great for years to come
