WINEMAKERS NOTES:

Making a truly wonderful wine begins with only the best estate grown fruit from the heart of the Lodi Appellation. We HAND PICK into small bins to keep the fruit intact for its trip to the winery.

The 2021 blend consists of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot and 10% Syrah. Once we have received the fruit at the winery, we keep each varietal separate through the entire

fermentation and aging process. We then make several blends and sample each one until we have found one that is greater than its parts.

TASTING NOTES:

Swirl this magnificent beauty around the glass and right away you’ll notice the mesmerizing maroon color. Aromas of bing cherries, cranberries, fresh raspberries and hint of baking spices lead to your olfactory bliss. The palate explodes with a wave of fresh juicy red plums, raspberries, cranberries, goji berries and dried cherries, with firm tannins, leading to a long, totally seductive finish.
