Brilliant and bright aromas of cranberry, rhubarb and Bing cherry abound and are complemented by baking spices, pink peppercorn, and slate. Echoing the nose, the mouthwatering palate shows additional flavors of blood orange, orange zest, pomegranate seeds, cherry tobacco, and cedar box. The long, flavorful, and concentrated finish is youthful in structure and hints at this wines’ longevity. Yielding just shy of one and one-half tons at harvest from sixty-seven year old vines, we are certain this wine will age for decades to come and be a testament to the significance and importance of this historic vineyard block.

Very expressive, with a burst of pine, sous-bois and savory elements followed by more restrained bitter plum, bitter cherry and rose petal notes. Racy and youthfully taut, with a strong mineral edge adding cut and drive to the finish, but this comes full circle with an encore of mouthwatering fruit at the very end. Best from 2024 through 2036. — J.M
