Pine nuts, lemon bar, green apple, and seashell mingle with searing acidity. Clean, pure , and stony dry, with an herbal lift.

Aged 12 months in French oak, the wine is dense and juicy, with super-ripe cherries, blueberries, and milk chocolate. At this price, every sip is a steal.
Focused tension, with a cooling acidity and a bright persona. Tart cherry, tobacco leaf, and mocha go a long way, with a cedar-seasoned finish.
Chalky tannins and bold notes of cherry tobacco and espresso dominate, with a lingering mid-palate rush of blackberries and dark chocolate espresso. A finish of spearmint adds to the lingering finish.
The blend of 54% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 11% Petit Verdot, and 5% Cabernet Franc spent 22 months in barrel. Taste the ancient soils, with notes of mocha and dark berries. The mouthfeel is creamy, with round giving tannins.
Fruit from Turnbull’s historic vineyards: Fortuna and Leopoldina, bore fruit for this dynamic and limited production “best of the best” from the winery. With 9% Cabernet Franc added to 92% Cabernet Sauvignon, the liquid spent 20 months in barrel with only 15% new oak. With tremendous stage presence, its charm is apparent from the initial sip, a silky, crimson curtain opening to reveal sandalwood soaked in dense boysenberry and black strap molasses. A textural mosaic of earth, dark chocolate, and summer plums offer a passionate finish.
Generous layers of plum, black cherry, and forest floor are pampered with cinnamon and red tea. Elegant, with an extended finish that leaves a dot of white pepper on the palate.
Grassy flavors fill the mouth, accompanied by grapefruit and lime sorbet. A pretty floral finish of gardenia is lit up by refreshing acidity.
