The grapes are harvested from a single vineyard located in the heart of Calistoga and planted to gravelly soils. Despite being on the valley floor, the berries are very small and impart characteristics of hillside fruit into the wine but still offer the balance that comes with valley floor fruit.
A bouquet of red, black and blue fruits spring from the glass with black plum preserves, cassis and stewed cherries. Inky dark fruit flavors are layered with notes of chocolate, grilled herbs, dried mint and scorched earth. Framed by soft tannins and a bold freshness, the finish is seamless.
