The 2019 Estate Zinfandel, aged for an opulent 36 months in barrel, is a masterclass in depth and complexity. From the first swirl, its inky garnet hue hints at the richness within. The nose is an intoxicating blend of blackberry compote, dried fig, and crushed violets, laced with whispers of exotic spice, cedar, and a touch of vanilla bean from extended oak aging. On the palate, it is luxuriously full-bodied, with layers of brambly black fruit, dark chocolate, and espresso, framed by silky yet structured tannins. A vibrant thread of black pepper and licorice lingers through the impossibly long finish, balancing its plush texture with just the right amount of acidity. Bold yet refined, this is a Zinfandel that transcends expectations—an age-worthy expression of both power and elegance.
Nose of red and black fruits, leather, and dried herbs, and it's medium to full-bodied, revealing plenty of mid-palate flesh before showing some ashy and metallic notes on the finish.
The 2021 Tempranillo-Grenache Blend is a revelation—a seamless fusion of power and finesse. The Tempranillo lends a deep core of ripe black cherry, tobacco, and leather, while the Grenache lifts the profile with bright raspberry, wild strawberry, and a whisper of white pepper. Aged in neutral oak, the wine achieves a velvety texture, balancing supple tannins with a vibrant acidity that lingers elegantly. Hints of dried herbs and a touch of cocoa round out the finish, making this a stunningly versatile wine—perfect for sipping on its own or pairing with anything from slow-braised lamb to fire-kissed vegetables. A beautifully structured, expressive vintage that captures both Old World charm and California’s bold spirit.
A light ruby hue followed by bright aromatics of dried strawberries, orange peel, savory herbs, flowery incense, and hints of leather. Medium-bodied, good acid and length, and wonderfully textured.
