"From Sonoma County, this cuvée highlights six different grape varieties grown in a terroir with a unique climate: discover it here!"

"Hints of toasted oak enhance the aroma of this well-balanced, beautifully structured wine before blueberries and black cherries dominate the palate. It offers excellent concentration, well-defined fruity flavors, and ample accents of oak, toast, vanilla, and cinnamon." (Wine Enthusiast 2022)
