Pouring a dark red color, the 2022 Baby Blue is generous and inviting with notes of fruit punch, toasted baking spice, crushed flowers, and fresh forest herbs. Full-bodied, it’s a highly appealing and charming wine with a fruity feel, ripe tannins, even acidity, and a clean finish. A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon along with 13% Merlot, 4% Petit Verdot, 4% Syrah 2% Malbec, and 1% Cab Franc, I enjoy this wine in this vintage, and it stays refreshing, which can pose a challenge with some 2022s. Drink 2025-2040.

Rich aromas of cocoa powder, cherry and cinnamon waft from the glass on the nose of this (mostly) Bordeaux-style blend. The palate delivers rich grippy tannin and flavors of berry liqueur, cocoa and purple flowers before a long finish. Yummy now, a few years in the cellar will really unlock the energy of this wine.

A supple, deeply fruity wine that’s generous in blueberry, milk chocolate and black cherry flavors on a full body. Mild tannins keep the texture smooth and easy in this Bordeaux-style red blend that is dominated by cabernet sauvignon. Drink now.
