White Blend No. 52B
Blend 52B is a unique cuvée of Chardonnay, Viognier, Sauvignon Blanc and Grenache Blanc that was given extra time to develop, resulting in an elegant wine of sophistication and pedigree. Perfumy and floral on the nose, it offers fragrances of star jasmine and lavender around a core of white peach, fig and crème brulée. Subtle accents of mango and hyacinth contribute lush dimension. A clean, refined palate shows delicate flavors of papaya and kiwi complemented by Asian pear and Casaba melon. This wine finishes gracefully with lingering notes of citrus, honeysuckle and ginger.
Red Blend No. 49A
Blend 49A takes an unconventional path to harmony with an eclectic cuvée of Cabernet Sauvignon, Tempranillo, Tannat and Petite Sirah. This wine offers an opulent and inviting nose of plum, cocoa, kirsch and black currant with a whisper of crème de menthe. Deeper layers reveal black olive, fennel and desert sage highlighted by toasty oak. A plush, seamless texture delivers succulent flavors of Oregon blackberry, wild boysenberry, pomegranate and cranberry. Suggestions of cardamom and crushed herb add complementary spice accents to underlying black cherry and dark chocolate. A long, persistent finish replays cherry and plum notes with hints of sandalwood.
Red Blend No. 39B
lend 39B combines Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot and Petite Sirah to create a powerhouse Paso Robles cuvée. The nose is highly perfumed, offering intense aromas of black cherry, boysenberry, crème de cassis and cocoa with hints of plum, graphite, crushed gravel and saddle leather. Secondary aromas of eucalyptus, toasted almond and allspice reveal layered complexity. A rich, juicy palate bursts with blackberry, blueberry, spicy currant and black plum accompanied by accents of espresso and truffle, while notes of lavender and black olive add balancing contrast. Focused and beautifully structured, with graceful, mature tannins, this wine delivers a long and elegant finish with notes of cherry, pomegranate and dried herbs.
