Dark ruby in color, the Year of the Tiger cuvee invites you in with aromas of black cherries and macerated plums. Layered flavors of blackberries, dark chocolate and black currant coat the palate and are followed by notes of baking spices and fresh vanilla. With a mouthfeel that is textured yet polished, this uniquely blended cuvee has a long silky finish.

The beginning of the 2019 growing season was defined by copious rainfall and late soil moisture. The long, warm summer saw very few extreme heat events, with foggy mornings setting the stage for vibrant and expressive wines. The long, relatively mild finish to the season, not without its moments of unpredictability, helped to preserve freshness and finesse in the fruit with abundant hang time teasing out great color, structure and soft tannins. Volume is looking to be about average to a little less than average. All in all, exceptional fruit with bright acidity and ample texture promises an amazing vintage.
