"Aromas of charred wood and black pepper waft up from the glass before concentrated, quiet but deep flavors of black olive, blackberry and oolong tea coat the palate". ~ Jim Gordon, Wine Enthusiast
Classic Cabernet with impressive harmony and a sense of grace. Sourced from three different vineyards across the top of the Mayacamas Ridge, all at 1800' elevation or higher.
The 2010 Tina Marie rides in on a four-horse chariot. An incredible explosion of fruit and non-fruit aromas exclaiming, “Here I am!” Creamy and weighty on the palate with a wonderful balance of acidity which lengthens the finish.
A mammoth sized wine with youthful mouth coating tannins which cloak the richness inside. Featuring fruit that represents the vineyard environment: aromas of cedar, brush, licorice and dust complement blueberry and plum, with flavors of dusty chocolate, blackberry, and cherry kirsch.
