Garnet-ruby color with nose of ripe cherries, raspberries, clove, baked dessert, and sweet toasted oak. Bramble fruit on the palate with smooth-polished tannins, lively acidity, and a long finish. EB (3/20)

Winter was dry, leaving the vines short on water. Cool summer weather slowed vine growth, but a return to warmth in September prompted harvest. The grapes were destemmed and crushed into small tanks. Pump-overs during fermentation easily extracted full color and tannin. Once malolactic finished, the wine was racked to barrel. The spice from oak aging complements the wine’s appealing fruit. Enjoyable now, it will continue to drink well over the next five years.
