This wine has a deep red robe, black highlights and a vibrant violet rim. Primary aromas of black cherry, mulberry, rose petal and Ethiopian coffee develop greater nuance as the wine breathes, revealing red cherry, chocolate, fig and cardamom. On the palate, ripe damson plum, savory aged beef and allspice infuse the wine's silky tannins and rich velvety texture. The wine is full yet supple, with a long and complex finish and a vibrant core of minerality.

Delicate, detailed aromas of pear skin, honeysuckle, wet slate and vanilla bean unfold in the glass and deepen with air. On the palate, the wine is at once rich and very focused – dominated at first by mouthwatering acidity and stony minerality, then broadening into generous flavors of lemon curd and green pistachio.

The “Terraces” is a classic Mayacamas Chardonnay, marked by bracing acidity, and focused, concentrated flavors of Asian pear, orange blossoms, wet stones and lime candy.

Red raspberry tart, bing cherry, black olive, thyme make for a substantially complex palate. The firm, structured tannins make for a classic profile, and suggest a particularly ageable wine.

Sweet red berries, cinnamon, wild flowers, cedar and tobacco are all laced together in a supple, racy Cabernet that is already drinking well.
