Rating: Stars


This vineyard that has been part of the Moss Wood stable for some years now, is really starting to develop a level of consistency. Okay, good vintages help, but the tannin management has resulted in wines of a more classy expression of the region. Smooth and seamless while still packing a punch. Will handle some extended cellaring while drinking well in the short-term.
