No one develops aromatics quite like Bob Lindquist. There’s a depth to his wines that is unique, and his fans know that they only get deeper with time. This bottling, named for his mother, is a worthy tribute, featuring layered blueberry, candied raspberry, menthol and Saigon cinnamon scents that translate to bright palate flavors, joined by classy oak spice and a touch of vanilla. Go with moderate to strong cheeses now, or age a while for a full elegant expression that will pair with beef or game beautifully.
