The velvety tannins and lengthy finish make it a delightful partner for succulent meats. This lavish wine, boasting of an elegant structure and nuanced palate, is a true testament to Paul Hobbs' exceptional wine-making skills.

Tasting Notes

Deep garnet in the glass, the 2017 vintage is a blend composed of pedigreed sites and displays aromas of dried lavender, cocoa powder, and wild blueberry. A core of black fruit is wrapped around holiday spice and crushed rock that adds depth and complexity. Polished tannins and fresh acidity frame the palate which finishes long and with an herbal lift of sage.
