Originating from the esteemed Paso Robles region, this 2006 vintage reveals a beautifully balanced profile. The wine possesses a medium body that is neither too heavy nor too light, making it wonderfully approachable. Its acidity is bright, contributing to a refreshing mouthfeel that enhances the fruit characteristics. The fruit intensity is prominent, with flavors of ripe blackberries and dark cherries taking center stage, complemented by subtle earthy notes. Tannins are notable, providing structure and a pleasing finish, while retaining a dry character that enhances its versatility with food pairings.

Paso Robles

California's fastest-growing wine region is quickly gaining an international reputation for its innovative and boundary-breaking wines. Located halfway between LA and San Francisco, the Paso Robles AVA in San Luis Obispo County has two main zones. The eastern side has a hot and sunny climate with deep, rich soils producing plush, fruity wines with sweet ripe flavors. To the west, the cooling influence of the Pacific brings a zingy backbone to rich Zinfandel and Rhône favorites like Syrah and Viognier. Italian varietals like Sangiovese and Nebbiolo are also favorites of Paso Robles grape growers and wine drinkers.
