The volcanic soil of Sonoma Mountain truly comes to the forefront in this mineral-rich gem, accompanied by notes of graphite, black plum, white pepper, marionberry, and a subtle hint of black licorice. It exudes a masculine, tightly wound structure yet balances with a delightful floral essence. A burst of blueberry, blackberry, orange peel, cranberry, and dusty road follows, enriching the palate with its depth and complexity. Dark, juicy, and mouthwatering, the wine reveals ripe fruit flavors intertwined with nuances of wet slate, sun-dried cherries, and black pepper. With its myriad of flavors and textures, this wine offers an engaging experience.
