from a vineyard planted in 1981 in the hills above what became silicon valley, this shows soy sauce, sesame, black olive, dill, beef jerky and the darkest of black fruits on the nose. the palate continues the asian flavor theme, with teriyaki, chinese five spice and hoisin sauce as well as blueberry paste, dusty leather and crushed rocks, framed by strong structure and bright acidity. drink 2017–2027.
