Aromas of ripe cherries, roses, cola and mocha are expressed in the nose. Concentrated flavors of Maraschino cherries, strawberry, cola, Asian spices and forest floor are complemented by the sweet and creamy grape and oak tannin in the finish. The thin hillside soils from this ranch have added an immense amount of depth and complexity to this wine.
—Winemaker Bob Cabral
A hot spell in March followed by a warm spring influenced an unusually early bloom and budbreak. This precocious start, followed by a growing season of moderate temperatures, resulted in a very early harvest. Although we harvested the grapes two to three weeks earlier than normal, the long season provided ample time for the fruit to reach full maturity and develop extraordinary color and intense flavors. A cooling trend in mid-September offered the Chardonnay additional hang time prior to harvest.
