This property is well known as the source of early wines for Jayson Pahlmeyer and Helen Turley. It is located in the Coombesville district and is one of properties leading the way for this newer appellation.
This wine is a refreshingly different blend of approximately 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot, and 20% Syrah. The color is an opaque, purple-blue and the aromas are of blackcurrants and grilled steak. The wine is very full bodied, seamless, and rich yet understated & compelling. Very, very tasty and built to cellar for about 15 years or more thanks to it's beautiful tannin structure.
