The recent vintage of 2004 is by far the strongest vintage at Bryant Family Vineyard, displaying the classic blueberry jam notes intermixed with cassis, smoke, underbrush, and spice. It is a full-bodied, opulent, fleshy wine that is beautifully pure, long, dense, and concentrated. Nevertheless, the forward style of this vintage argues for drinking this wine over the next 15+ years. Winemaking consultant Philippe Melka was let go at Bryant, with Mark Aubert becoming the full-time winemaker working in conjunction with globe-trotting oenologist and consultant Michel Rolland.Telephone: 707-963-0483, Fax: 707-963-0482, Email: info@bryantwines
