Final Words

The grapes from this wine come from the second leaf harvest of Ravine vines. Much like the harvest itself, the wine is delightfully surprising! Often overshadowed by its 2007 counterpart, this wine has quiet confidence. This is truly a refined and elegant wine that easily seduces on the first sip. Beware!
