This 2005 offering is very complex. The wine starts out with a glossy gold color, the result of all the sunshine on the grapes, and the hefty dose of new French Oak. The nose is like a ripe, apply, Brie cheese with a toasty marzipan crust and a pinch of tapioca. In the mouth, it starts off with a luxurious texture, much of which is contributed by the fruit out of Gainey’s Evans Ranch, and the Los Alamos Vineyard’s 3 acre “Block Tea” section. The wine’s opulent texture is chaperoned by its acidity, ultimately leaving your palate with a Burgundian sensation of mineral.
