This medium-bodied wine boasts red-toned dark cherry, cassis, and plum fruits. The nose offers mineral intensity, rose petals, and red liquorice, nuanced by tobacco, saddle leather, and loamy earth. The palate showcases nice tension, finishing long with sweet baking spice character and elegant cedarwood notes. Sourced entirely from Yountville, this wine is fermented in stainless steel with 2–3 pump-overs and extended maceration of up to 10 days and aged for 14 months in 30% new French oak—a real dazzler at the pull of the cork.
