One hour decant(little cloudy sediment). A stellar inky ruby red color. On the nose: creme brulee, blackberry, forest floor, dark cherry, leather. Taste: dark cherry, pepper, tea, charcoal with a beautiful chocolate graphite long finish. A elegant, rich mouthfeel and full body wine that is aging nicely.
Vinified in Sacramento!! With grapes from Napa To Kalon...small production at a great price if you can find it. — 5 years ago
97 degrees in the Sacramento valley (hey, they say it's a dry heat, but damn it's still hot)!!....time for some pool, pizza, and Zin! Pop and pour. A mystical dark ruby red. On the nose: cherry, vanilla, spice. Taste: dark cherry, blackberry, pepper, some currents and chocolate on the end. — 5 years ago
A gift from a friend and my first taste of a "luxury branded wine designed to fit your lifestyle"(their marketing 😂)....I might not be their target customer since I live in a small bungalow home in Sacramento, but I'll give it the ole swirl/sniff/sip/spit anyways.
1 hour decant (lots of cloudy sediment). On the nose: very aromatic notes of black cherry, nutty vanilla, charcoal, cedar, floral. Taste: smooth, silky, rich teeth staining wine with blackberry pie, licorice, black currants, dark chocolate, pepper and a LONG dry finish.
Not feeling the luxury, just a well made Napa cab like a couple hundred others out there. Cheers!
Tusk..."because there are those who regard luxury and those who live it"...sounds like a deodorant commercial tag line😆 🤣 — 2 years ago

So I went into Total Wine In Sacramento,.last night of a week long business trip, thinking maybe they'd have a nice Barbera or Ridge Zin, and came out with this. Obviously too young, but jam packed with berries, game. Lovely floral finesse and lift. Just pure class. Made my week. — 5 years ago

Still young for my tastes but checking in on a go-to producer. Killer with King Crab Salad sandwiches 🥪
This bottle was a bit slow out the gate and needed some air to reveal the magic inside. This bottle was a pick up from Corti Bros when passing through Sacramento via Tahoe.
Finesse, and beautifully prolific white wine structure all the way throughout.
