Wine Review: The bouquet of this wine is a bit shy. On the palate, this wine is creamy and very flavorful. It is well balanced and would be a very good food wine. The finish is slightly dry and lingers for quite some time. Enjoy this fun wine. - Ken

Winemaker Notes: Get ready for a terrific wine with tons of both Oakville and Calistoga character. From our four mid valley vineyards come the aromas of dried raspberries, a bit of spearmint and something fittingly floral (maybe those roses at the ends of the vineyard rows!) From our Blossom Creek Vineyard in Calistoga you’ll find an array of complex earthy tones: something reminiscent of briar and forest humus, bay leaf and an intriguing note of something on the nutty side. You get something different? No worries…this one’s all about being "in the moment" and having some fun. Now get to it!
