This wine is produced from the unique Shell Creek Vineyard in Paso Robles.
The nose opens to a floral bouquet of rose petals, violets and blueberries,
highlighted by cinnamon and white pepper spice.
The flavors offer a range of fruit on all points of the palate, beginning with
fresh cranberries and moving to blueberries midway.
It finishes with lingering ripe cherries and a trace of that white pepper spice.
