RATINGS

96The Wine Advocate

...beautiful nose of baked blackberries, preserved plums and crème de cassis over nuances of violets, dark chocolate, Sichuan pepper, dried mulberries and smoked bacon. Medium to full-bodied, rich and decadent on the palate...firm backbone of grainy tannins and just enough freshness supporting the black fruit and perfumed layers, delivering a long and multilayered finish...

95Wine Enthusiast

Extreme amounts of roasted beef and grilled lamb aromas meet with rosemary, bay leaf and crushed rainbow peppercorns for a deliciously savory and spicy nose... Those meaty qualities ride into the palate, where burnt bacon flavors meet with tar, black pepper and a hint of black currant.

93Vinous / IWC

...big, rich wine...offers terrific flavor intensity and depth. Plum, black cherry and lavender are some of the many notes...There is more than enough tannin and overall structure.

REGION

United States, California, Central Coast

Central Coast AVA is a huge wine producing area that extends from Santa Barbara County in the south to San Francisco in the north. With more than 100,000 vineyard acres, it includes parts of six counties near the Pacific Ocean. Nearly 20 smaller AVAs lie within the Central Coast AVA. Central Coast earned appellation status in 1985. Included in the appellation are parts of the counties of Contra Costa, Monterey, San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara, Santa Clara and Santa Cruz. Nearly every grape varietal grown in California is grown somewhere in the Central Coast AVA, though Chardonnay accounts for nearly 50% of the entire wine grape crop.
