Ripe, voluptuous blackberry and cherry overlie a dusty undercoat of tannin and minerality. These come across as rocky on the palate, complemented by moderate acidity and a rich texture. The fruit shows a maturity of both ripeness and attitude.

Complex and well-focused, offering cherry and strawberry rhubarb pie flavors that are rich and full-bodied, with a minerally edge on the finish, where the flavors get a lift. Drink now through 2019. 125 cases made.

A fabulous, lush Pinot Noir, dry and silky. Crisp coastal acidity brightens the complex flavors of raspberries, cherries and spices, with sweet oak influences, and there’s a rich tang of minerals from the earth. It’s ridiculously delicious now, but with a tug of tannins, it should develop over the next six years, at least.
