The 2021 Lonesome Rock Ranch Vineyard Pinot Noir opens with a bold bouquet of hoisin, black cherry and rich earthy undertones. The silky palate is packed with flavors of fresh strawberry, red plum and cranberry with a subtle spiciness that makes this wine really sing in its youth. The initial nose hints at a wine that may be dense and brooding but in the mouth is delightfully fresh and elegant. The brisk acid and supple tannins effortlessly intertwine with the juicy fruit and savory layers, resulting in a balanced effort that will surely evolve immensely over the next 10+ years.

The Red Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon from Block 32 at Shaw Vineyard continues to deliver exceptional quality and be a cellar favorite amongst our winemaking team. The 2020 vintage is loaded with fresh raspberries, black currant, burnt orange peel and red fig. The broad tannins are well integrated at this point and support the satiating mouthfeel, with hints of ground nutmeg, mocha and hoisin. A seamless wine with restraint and a lengthy finish that will surely gain more nuance if you can wait. This will cellar easily for 15+ years. – N.B.

The 2020 Four Flags is another great example of the elegant power Red Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon can display and the consistent allure created when blending these four prestigious vineyards together. The wine slowly unwinds with aromas of black cherry, cassis, sandalwood and olive tapenade. The palate offers hints of fresh ground coffee, cacao nibs, and red currant, which are all supported by silky, yet generous tannins. Great concentration and balance of fruit and savory components suggest this wine will cellar for many years and benefit in its youth with a hefty decant. – N.B
