farmed under the winery's nellaserra greenhouse system, this is an atypical blend for northern michigan: 40% cabernet sauvignon, 25% nebbiolo, 20% merlot and 15% syrah. this is a seemless mélange of spiced currant, cranberry and red plum, accented by warm spices and crushed violets. the round, medium-to full-bodied palate follows suit, with streaks of crushed stone giving levity all the way through to the lingering toasted-spice finish.
