2014 Mount Richmond
This lush wine opens with black currant, tobacco and dry coniferous forest on the nose. Black plums and ripe cherries lend fruit to a broad base of deep, dark flavors of black walnut, cocoa bean and leather. Savory with a full finish complemented by flecks of cracked peppercorn and baking spice.

92 Points & "Cellar Selection" in Wine Enthusiast
“This deeply flavored wine bursts forth with ripe blueberry, plum and cherry fruit. The mouthfeel is silky and succulent, wrapping the forward fruit into darker flavors laced with minty cacao, licorice and espresso.”
