In typical Ridgecrest fashion, this wine balances between fresh fruit and earthy characteristics. Aromatics of blueberries and blackberry bramble are complemented by notes wet leaves and forest floor. The palate is big and juicy with bold, upfront tannins that soften as the finish lingers. This is a big wine in its youth, but it will age amazingly over the next three to five years.
