| Review |
"Lush with fruit flavors and highlights of mocha. This wine is a perfect companion to grilled meat dishes."
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate |

| Harvest Notes |
Despite vigorous thinning, 2006 was a large crop year. Harvest started relatively late, we received our first grapes on the last day of September. Early summer was relatively cool, allowing the grapes to mature slowly on the vine and develop lenghty and complex flavors. |

| Fermentation |
3 Days cold soaked and then fermented in mix of open top and closed top fermenters. |
