made by jillian johnson, who long ago fell in love with the bechthold vineyard and whose last few vintages were under the phoenix ranch name. this is her first onesta cinsault. shy, it takes some coaxing to reveal itself, blossoming into a textured, lean mix of the vineyard's classic rhubarb flavor with a bit of strawberry mixed in. streaks of spicy pepper come to life on the finish.
