Supple and refined, with elegantly layered, expressive raspberry, fresh violet and baking spice accents that glide on the long, silky finish toward fine tannins. Drink now through 2030. 2,000 cases made.

A juicy red with dried-berry, strawberry and green-tobacco character. It’s full and flavorful, yet round, with velvety tannins that are tight and focused. Needs to open at the end. Try after 2024, but already flavorful and satisfying. Screw cap.

This is drinking almost like a wine right out of the fermenter. It's bright, tart, stiff and fresh, bursting with cranberry fruit. Tannins are hard and chewy, and there's little doubt that another two or three years of bottle age would be very helpful. It was aged 18 months in 20% new French oak. Drink after 2023.
