Red Blend, California 2024

Aromas of blackberry, black cherry, and vanilla are complemented by subtle notes of leather and tobacco.

The full-bodied palate reveals layers of juicy dark fruit, blueberry, and raspberry, accented by toasted cedar, caramel, and spice. Balanced acidity and supple tannins lead to a smooth, structured finish.
