Saturated/opaque ruby color. Intense aromas of cassis and blackberries, spice box, violets, and black olive. Ripe, dark mountain fruit, rich velvety tannins, firm acid, and sweet oak in a long finish. EB (3/19)

This historic vineyard, first planted by Pierre Klein in the late 19th century, comprises today’s Jimsomare Ranch. Lower on Monte Bello Ridge, the vineyard experiences greater variation in diurnal temperatures. The drought this year produced a wine of beautiful intensity. This wine’s dark mountain fruit and rich tannins give it great aging potential. It will be at its best in twenty years.
