Description

The 2015 Rockaway has wonderful concentrated flavors of dark plum and red currant with notes of tobacco and leather. The earthy minerality of the wine is balanced out by notes of baking spices with a rich, complex structure and a long lingering finish. Enjoy this wine now or cellar it for enjoyment in 8 to 10 years.

This is a textured and leathery red that offers spice, earth and robustly ripe fruit. Brick, tar, raspberry and currant flavors are seasoned in dried herb and tobacco, with firm tannins lending support.

Interesting Fact – In January 2020, a door in a blending tank, filled with Cabernet Sauvignon, sprung open and sent 46,000 gallons of wine into the Russian River. Minimal juice was saved in the tank, which will result in a rare 2019 vintage with a big story to tell.
