Wine Enthusiast Review
Rated 95
From a vineyard that sits at 1,900 feet just 14 miles from the ocean, this bottling is packed with aromas of stewed red cherry, cocoa and dried mint on the toasty nose. The palate follows a clean, elegant and polished line of texture and flavors, with black cherry, mint chocolate chip and dried-meat aromas making for a savory showcase.
