"Hailing from Sonoma County, this blend showcases six different grape varieties grown in a terroir with a unique climate: discover it here!"

“Hints of toasted oak enhance the aroma of this well-balanced, beautifully structured wine, before blueberries and black cherries take center stage on the palate. It offers excellent concentration, well-defined fruit flavors, and generous notes of oak, toast, vanilla, and cinnamon.” (Wine Enthusiast 2022)
