Hidden Gem: This wine is a special bottling that is different each year. It is unique because of the elevation, the soil, and the location. The aromatics are rich, Blackberry, Blueberry, cedar, and notes of caramelized vanilla beans on the nose; the flavors are concentrated Boysenberry, red currant confiture, dried thyme, intermingled with chicory, and leathery tannins on the mid-palate creating a mouth-watering finish. Decant and pair with smoked Maitake mushrooms, turnip puree, Black truffle jus — Tonya Pitts

Offering an earthy, herbal bouquet with black and red currant notes that carry over to the full bodied palate. There’s good acidity and freshness, nicely concentrated black currant and licorice flavors and well integrated oak. Finishes with fine, round tannins.
