This wine is rich, with aromas of dark cherry, plum, vanilla, violet and dried bay leaf. Flavors on the palate are blackberry, boysenberry, baked nectarine and allspice, sliding into mocha, espresso and leathery tannins.

93 Tasting Panel

Conveying the essence of Livermore Valley terroir, this opulent red is luscious from the start, with coffee and plum-skin tannins forming its backbone. Notes of black cherry and dark chocolate are memorable, as is the suede mouthfeel.

91 James Suckling
Notes of blackberries, dark cherries, baking spices, nutshells and wet earth. Full-bodied, dry and lightly chewy on the palate, with a firm finish. Vibrant and juicy. Drink or hold.
