Product Description

Tasting notes

On the nose is dense pomegranate and rhubarb pie with a backdrop of nutmeg and clove-spiced forest floor. Luscious and bright, yet weighty on the palate, the fruit and spices burst through. The long and balanced finish confirms the nose with fresh, sweet tannins surrounding.

Balanced and complex, this wine is drinkable now, but should age nicely for another 10+ years.

Vineyard notes

The Sangiacomo’s Roberts Road Vineyard is a 130 acre vineyard; it is a well-drained site planted on a creek bed, initially planted in 1999. Because the fog can often remain until midday, the growing season is long and slow – allowing for nicely ripened fruit, with balanced sugars and acids allowing for complex flavor development. The vineyard is Certified Sustainable – CSWA – and grows cool climate Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. This is always one of our last vineyards to be picked.
