Beautifully balanced with minty cloves and minerality that are complimented by spice and a hint of sweet chocolate.

This wine has great depth visually and on the palate. By fermenting the Petite Sirah with the Zinfandel, it provides a solid back bone for structure but does not over power the zinfandel characteristics of blueberry and spice that are dominant.

This section of the Mustang Springs Vineyard was meticulously farmed to one cluster per shoot. Once ripe, the fruit was hand picked early in the morning and then cold soaked for three days. After a ten day fermentation, the wine was basket pressed and aged in American and French hybrid barrels. The perfectly balanced fruit from this vineyard is very apparent in the flavors of this wine. Mild sweet vanilla, light spices and blackberry essence. An elegant wine with a full mouth feel.
