Wine Details
Price:
$30.00 per bottle
Description:
"From a well managed vineyard just outside of Los Olivos, the fantastic Great Oaks grapes result in one of our most rich, complex, and age worthy wines. The fruit was again very ripe at harvest, and intense blueberry, ripe plum, and black cherry flavors are supported by a firm, confident tannin structure. American Oak barrel ageing imparts a subtle influence of vanilla and coconut which just adds to the complexity as this wine unfolds with a little time in the glass. This is definitely a heavy hitter and can go toe to toe with a blackened Filet, a good cigar, and the inevitable after-dinner political discussion solving the problems of the world. And while “brown bag tastings” aren’t really supposed to be a competition, it sure is fun to slip this in the lineup and just smile.
