A wine that captures what’s best about Dry Creek, offering loads of briary raspberry and cherry flavors, with toasty sage, cinnamon and pepper accents that finish on a dynamic note. Drink now through 2029.

This brawny, unabashedly ripe, supple wine is thick in baked plum, dark cherry and mocha, with a viscosity that expands on the palate. Baking spice and cola mingle and add to the opulent style.
