A very interesting expression — it’s big and bold and ripe in style, with full throttle black cherry, spice and candied raspberry aromas and flavors, but it has fine acidic structure and comes in at 13.6% alcohol. It leaves you with a mouth watering "please may I have some more" attitude. Located just west of San Jose, it’s a somewhat unexpected source. Love it!
