This wine opens with an enticing nose of red fruit, Luxardo cherry, and a touch of pine needle. True to its rustic hillside origins, it offers an intriguing layered palate of cherry cola, herbaceous flavors, and spiced leather with cinnamon. Graceful and medium-bodied, this wine is perfect to drink now and also has at least fifteen years of cellaring potential.

Production from the estate's 40 planted acres is approximately 3,000 cases annually. This small-scale production allows them to maintain consistently high standards in both the vineyard and the winery. They've never bought a grape and they farm their land with their in-house crew. Stewarded by Jim Duane, their winemaker, and also Philippe Melka, their consulting winemaker. Seavey's goal is to create masterful, soulful wines that exude a sense of place and age gracefully.
