Translucent, brick; medium body. Perfumed-but-fresh, not-quite-candied raspberry/plum nose with hints of rose petal, herbs, tar, plank & tobacco then earthy, minerally, meaty blueberry/blackberry notes. Earthy, round plum and raspberry "fruit hybrid" flavors in the mouth. A vibrant first red at any event—good acidity, feel and extraction. Fresh, focused raspberry/plum over sleek, extracted blueberry/blackberry framed by the agricultural nose flavors.

Winemaking

Nebbiolo machine picked October 25, 2018, Petite Sirah machine picked October 16, 2018. Both sorted & de-stemmed. After both were crushed, cold soaking, alcoholic fermentation, extended maceration and malolactic fermentation, then pressing before starting aging in oenotanks by early January 2019. A portion of each component remained in stainless steel to preserve the varietal fruit's freshness. Final blend was assembled just prior to bottling.
