In addition to its stewed dark fruit and baking spice, this wine has all the structural characteristics of a wine perfect for pairing with food.

WINE REGION:
Dunnigan Hills
The lesser-known Dunnigan Hills appellation is nestled in a set of hills in the northwestern part of Yolo County, just east of Sonoma County. Known for producing big reds and lighter more acidic white. With rolling hills varying between 200 and 500 feet elevation, the region experiences vast diurnal temperature swings. This extreme change between dry heat during the day and cool temperatures at night allows the area to boast an extremely long growing season.

TASTING NOTES:
Fruit Preserves
Vanilla
Oak
Uplifting aromatics of coconut and vanilla complement spicy scents of cinnamon. The palate is a bit tangy with notes of balsamic and brown sugar, but this wine’s flavors are not sweet. Instead, each sip is textural, fruity, and rhythmic with notes of pruned plums, blackberries, and oak.
