A Dry Creek Valley, Sonoma County Merlot made from 90% Merlot, 6% Petite Sirah and 4% Zinfandel.
The red varieties are co-fermented, and the wine ages for 10 to 12 months in American and French oak barrels, with roughly 25-35% new oak. It is from the 2021 vintage.
The nose opens with ripe blackberry and dark plum, followed by milk chocolate, toasted oak, dried herbs and roasted coffee. The palate is lush and fruit-forward, with blackberry, blueberry, dark chocolate, red licorice and cinnamon spice, finishing with velvety tannins, wood char, spiced nuts and cocoa.
