Yields in 2005 were so low that “we had to send out search parties at harvest time,” jokes winemaker Peter Caldwell. This is a dark, almost inky, wine, with aromas and flavors of black cherries and plums, all wrapped in a slightly herbal edge of drying tannins. Hold and see if another year or two takes some of that edge off. ——W.E.(12/15/2006)—— 89
