With fruit sourced from vineyards on the north side of the Alexander Valley, there is real decadence here: ripe blackberry meets sweet spice, plus dense notes of cocoa, black tea and herbal undertones. French oak provides vanilla spice and tannins and encourages an almost sweet finish. Drinking window: 2020-2025. Score - 90. (Stacy Slinkard, decanter.com, Dec. 4, 2020)
