almost all varietal (with 2% malbec) from one of the state's premier sites, this wine draws you into the glass with aromas of coffee, scorched earth, herb, spice and dark fruit. the palate shows a beguiling sense of restraint and detail, with the tannins combed to a fine sheen, perfectly framed acidity and a lengthy finish. it's an exquisite example of the variety that should have a long life ahead of it. it will be best after 2020.
