"Floral and effusive this vibrant purple beast is layered and exotic and loaded to the brim with lavender, herbs, flowers and fruit. Dense and concentrated but not thick and syrupy. Zesty and unmistakably delicious, this is one that we have been very excited about releasing into the wild. Absolutely crushable now, but sure to gain nuance with some bottle age, if you can resist drinking all of yours right away." —winemaker

Blend: Zinfandel, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Sirah, Syrah, Merlot, Malbec
"The 2020 Gratitude is a representation of this incredibly beautiful vintage and wine. Marionberry, dried blueberry, blood orange and white lilac intrigue-and-collide with the senses, demanding further evaluation of this beauty, elegance and complexity. Forest floor, honeysuckle, fresh sourdough bread, nutmeg, and more to discover." —winemaker
"The Rocks speak out loud... Black plum, grilled meat, evergreen forest, and pencil shavings whisper in delight. Fresh herbs, black cherry, and clove. Seamless, long, and satisfying. A very special Roma." —winemaker

"The 2019 D2 aromas dance effortlessly between savory and dried fruit characteristics. Cranberries, roasted coffee beans, cassis and burnt orange are highlighted by deep, rich barrel tones of nutmeg, vanilla bean, dark chocolate and clove. As the wine develops in the glass, the fruit profile shifts between red and dark fruits, a trademark of D2 that we love. An inviting freshness and pronounced herbal quality on the palate leads to a structure that is refined despite the wine's youth. Cellar for 15+ years." —winemaker
"The 2017 Rowen red blend is a lush and elegant wine consisting of wonderful high elevation, mountain fruit. The wine has aromas of dark cherries, blackberries and sweet toasted oak from the co-fermented Viognier. On the palate, the wine is balanced and structured from the Cabernet Sauvignon with notes of juicy cassis, light floral and sweet vanilla. Co-fermenting the Syrah with the Viognier is a classic Northern Rhone technique which adds an exotic floral element to the finished wine as well as a rounder 2017 red wine mouthfeel." —winemaker
"A dark mauve core with a neon purple rim, the wine stains everything. Opening aromatics on the 2020 Machete are gorgeous immediately: ripe pluot, carne asada, new cowboy boots, lilacs, espresso bean and wet concrete. On the palate, layers upon layers reveal themselves, from a plum galette topped with fior di latte gelato to 85% cacao dark chocolate to barbequed tri-tip and sweet oak. Puckering tannins to finish, the wine closes on a high note with a touch of blood orange zest and lingering acidity." —winemaker
