The wine opens with vibrant aromatics of wild strawberry, pomegranate, and red currant, layered with rose petal, coastal sage, and a hint of sea breeze minerality from the high-altitude Manchester fruit. On the palate, a juicy core of raspberry and Bing cherry is framed by fine-grained tannins and a thread of savory spice from the Sonoma Mountain Dijon 777. The carbonic element adds a silky lift and playful brightness, while the Russian River component grounds the wine with supple texture and lingering notes of black tea and forest floor.
