WINEMAKER COMMENTS: "Red fruits and crushed rocks jump from the glass with the classic aromas of the Westside Road blend. Hints of hazelnut, earth, and sous bois belie the fruit and offer depth and complexity. Sourced from outstanding vineyards, this wine represents this amazing terroir along the rolling hills of Westside Road with elegance and class. Linear and focused in the mouth, the structure and minerals build on the palate with beautifully balanced acidity."
WINE SPECTATOR 95 POINTS - "A seductively ripe style, offering alternating flashes of boysenberry, raspberry and morello cherry, while burnished tannins and finely beaded acidity carry this through the iris- and black tea–infused finish, which leaves a mouthwatering feel. Drink now through 2036."
