WINE REGION:
California
California is one of the most diverse winegrowing regions in the world. Spanning 850 miles along North America's west coast—and inland across mountains and valleys—California's American Viticultural Areas (AVAs) cover a dizzying array of terroir. The cold, deep waters of the Pacific Ocean play a major role in cooling California's vineyards, sending fog and chilly air up to 100 miles inland. This tempers the daytime heat and allows grapes to ripen slowly but fully. Cooler-climate grape varieties thrive closest to the sea, while further inland, bigger, bolder wines prevail.

TASTING NOTES:
Blackberry
Chocolate
Raspberry
The nose introduces a basket of berry fruit with a touch of earthiness. Charming aromas of blackberry and raspberry carry you to the palate, where they join notes of chocolate and vanilla from oak aging. A smooth blanket of tannin and acidity wraps everything up to create a lasting finish.
