Dry Creek Vineyard has produced this bottling for many years, and they have held the price as steady as they have held the quality, which is great news for consumers as the quality has always been high. Dark fruit flavors of blackberry and currants get a boost from a rich mix of herbs and oak toast, and the finish shows both full integration of the elements and the grip of age-worthiness. A fine bargain in the category!
