crunchy red currants and blackberries and red plums.. gravel and tar.. mountain sage, mint and smoldering iron.. bright and deep and wild..
the body of the wine is lithe but powerful.. there is an acidity that lends a brightness to all of the flavors.. the tannins are grippy and structuring
v impressive
deep ruby.. 13.5% abv.. from own-rooted vines planted in 1969 in Sonoma Valley at 1700' on the ridgeline that divides Napa Valley from the Valley of the Moon.. planted in rocky, austere soils of clay-loam, and volcanics.. dry-farmed..
