  Purple bordering on garnet.Floral almost lavender nose with green stem and tomato plant. Also red berry preserve. Medium acidity, pleasant tannins with red berry. Not over oaked Like mostCalifornians.
  Fresh and bright. Really nice.

  Grenache and Mourvèdre
  Floral , light black fruit , spice , red cherry, fruit punch , medicinal , medium body, m+ acidity , nice firm fine grained tannins. Alcohol feels slightly pronounced at 13.7% I find this showing nice and a bit more complex than the 2015.

  Grenache-Mourvèdre blend. Extremely aromatic, very bright fruity-floral. Smells quite a lot like an Aviation with its creme de violette and green gin botanicals. On the palate it's quite a lot lighter than its medium-dark color would suggest. Quite stemmy-green, but well balanced here with a nice core of bright and some darker red fruit. Medium acid and fairly tannic still. Probably good with turkey. 100% whole cluster, some time in neutral oak. Grenache from Russian River Valley, Mourvèdre from Mendocino. 13.7%, $40.
