From de Villiers Vineyard planted over 25 years ago among Mt. Harlan's highest limestone-rich sites at 2,200+ feet elevation, biodynamically farmed with low yields; 2021's temperate weather yielded concentration with balanced acidity. Native fermentation and gentle extraction preserve purity, aged 18 months in French oak to enhance structure at 14.5% alcohol.
Tasting Notes
Deep ruby; aromas of blackberry, briar patch, soft leather, allspice, juicy blueberry, black raspberry, nutmeg, and cracked pepper. Medium-plus bodied palate offers velvety tannins, dark fruit layers, baking spices, earth, and complex savory persistence with refined minerality.
