Mocha and ripe wild cherries stand out in the nose of this concentrated wine. Racy cherry-cola flavors and rich fat tannins fill your mouth, along with truffles in the finish. The newer clonal plantings from this ranch are finally maturing and are now adding an immense amount of depth and complexity to this wine.
—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.
