One of California’s heritage varieties gets respectful treatment here, with a solid acidic backbone driving mixed berry fruit, delivered in dry style with vibrancy and beautiful peppery notes. This will live well into the future, and it’s so good now you’ll have trouble making your stash last. A Platinum Award winner at the 2019 Monterey International Wine Competition.
