Beginning with aromas of cranberry and rhubarb, your palate becomes consumed with notes of dried herbs and cracked pepper that lead into a collection of bold tannins to lengthen the finish.

Winemaker’s Notes:

A majority of the fruit comes from our La Cresta vineyard, which produces medium bodied Tempranillo with nice tannin structure, with Sage Tempranillo bringing out more red fruit and spicy notes.
