Crafted from Beckstoffer Las Piedras Vineyard on the western bench of the St. Helena AVA, this 2022 single-vineyard-designate opens with ripe black cherries and bittersweet chocolate. Blueberry, sage, and highlights of lilac unfold across the palate, anchored by graphite and wet stone minerality that present the vineyard’s distinctive terroir. Fine-grained tannins lend poise, balance, and depth.

“…gorgeous aromas of ripe black cherries, currants, chocolate, and chalky minerality… it’s medium to full-bodied, beautifully balanced, and seamless on the palate, with perfectly integrated oak. This is a remarkable achievement in 2022 that will keep for 15+ years.”

“[with the vineyard’s] characteristic crushed-stone notes on the nose… It’s red-fruited, with ample weight and richness on the palate, supple tannins and a long finish.”
