Fruit for this wine was selected from cool estate and grower vineyard sites within the Sonoma Coast boundaries all within 30 miles of the Pacific Ocean. The resulting blend is a complex, layered wine, representing the spectrum of growing conditions found within the Sonoma Coast. It embodies incredibly concentrated wines on the extreme coast with the deep and spicy qualities of the Russian River Valley; the dark earthiness of Los Carneros with the bright red fruit of the Green Valley.
"This special release offers up lively pie cherry aromas that mingle with alluring cocoa, allspice and black tea notes. Flavors of pomegranate combine with red plum and orange zest to deliver a well-balanced Sonoma Coast blend. Fine tannins and good concentration create a broad, supple mouthfeel that lingers well into the back palate."
