Dense black fruits of currant, blackberry compote and hints of toast lead the 2021 RESERVA as it unfolds with sandalwood, vanilla and floral notes and subtle forest floor character with exotic spices and curry. Silky and sweet fruited with dark chocolate character, the palate in this intensely focused wine has layers of mouth-coating flavors that continue to unfold over time.
The 2021 Lady of the Dead offers berries and spices in spades, with boysenberry, raspberry, and cranberry over allspice, cinnamon, and toasted oak. Already very open and easy to get to know, this wine has a juicy softness to it while packing a punch of concentrated fruit fullness. It builds layers of character in the glass, revealing more nuance, while never losing its focus on the fun of ripe dark fruit.
Intense sweet dark fruits with brooding aromas of blueberries, cocoa, leather and fine antique wooden furniture, and then hints of lifted maple in the foreground are later complemented by black olive. The wine hits the palate with sweet fruits of raspberry turning to blackberry and the structure unfolds with a building finish that portends a long future of graceful aging.
The 2020 LADY OF THE DEAD features a dark fruit core of bramble berries, Morello cherry, candied fruits, vanilla, cedar, allspice and tilled earth along with notes of leather.
Layers of dark fruits from brambleberries on top of spice cake, cedar cigar box and sweet pipe tobacco unfold on the nose. A concentrated attack of candied plum, black cherry and caramelized fig are part of the sweet and silky palate that is generous and long with a finish turning from currant to anise and showing a little grip and brightness.
The 2019 NV Cabernet Sauvignon is packed with sweet red juicy fruit with hints of raspberry and a touch of baking spices. The mid pallet is elegant with medium weight. Vibrant juicy bright fruit and acidity with well developed tannins carries it to a long finish.
