Wine Enthusiast, October 2020
- Polished aromas of dark blackberry and cherry are wrapped around cedar on the well-integrated nose of this bottling. It’s heavy and thick on the palate, where black currant, blackberry, dried herbs and soy sauce mingle.

With Paso Robles Merlot at its core, this lush wine recalls many of the best wines of Pomerol.
Our limited 2017 release is comprised of Merlot from our best Paso Robles vineyards with a bit of Malbec in the final blend. “Varietal aromas of black plum and blueberry are showcased, with a barrel bouquet of dark chocolate. Bright fruit notes on the palate speak to the contribution of Malbec in the wine. Chalky and structured for lengthy cellar aging. Great with Spanish paella or a grilled ribeye with shallots.” – Steve Peck, director of winemaking
