The nose exudes aromas of ripe blackberries, exotic spices, wild raspberry jam, black pepper, coffee and briary fruits. Particularly concentrated flavors of raspberry, blackberry jam, chocolate and coffee inundate your palate. Great acidity and round chewy tannins help balance the extremely ripe fruit. Concentrated and complex, this wine will drink very well into the future.
—Winemaker Bob Cabral
Following a labor-intensive growing season due to early spring rains, a cool summer and mild fall weather extended the ripening season in 2005. This long, slow maturation period permitted flavors and color to develop to high levels, and the absence of weather threats or temperature extremes allowed fruit to be picked at optimum ripeness. The fruit quality was extremely high, contributing to balanced and elegant wines with concentrated flavors and intense color.
