I am so in love with this winery right now. This is a beautiful Rhone style blend that is like candy on the palate. Strawberries and cola with perfect integrated tannins. Delicious!

Absolutely yummy. Strawberry fruit forward, slightly tannic and perfect with both food and on its own.

The definition of easy drinking and crowd pleasing, except you don’t have to sacrifice style or substance. Wonderful aromatics going on here with freshly cut gardenias, bright strawberries, and muted spice. This is a Central Coast take on Chateauneuf du Pape and while it doesn’t exactly reach that level, to me, it still hits all the high notes. Medium bodied with black cherries, Dr. Pepper, wet earth, light smoke, and cocoa powder on the more complex than expected palate. Add in some interesting minerality on the medium finish and you’ve got yourself a winner.

Easy drinking and great value for a Rhône blend from Central Coast. It’s still a good wine but somehow I don’t enjoy it as much as their 2014 vintage. UPDATE: I left it overnight and it improved significantly. Notes of rye whiskey and grass developed. I also enjoyed it more at a bit lower temperature (58-60F).
