Tasting Note The nose shows abundant red fruits, lots of bright cherry along with bramble-berries, such as blackberry, cranberry, mulberry, and framed with hints of mineral/herbal characters such as graphite, cedar, and pencil shavings. The palate is vibrant and fresh, with light tannin and beautiful acidity. Producer The Matthiasson’s need little introduction - Steve has been a finalist for the James Beard award twice and San Francisco Chronicle’s Winemaker of the Year. As they say, “winemaking, for us, is a natural extension of farming. We have both worked for many years in the sustainable agriculture and local food movement, and in 2003 we started Matthiasson Wines based on those values.” “Matthiasson wines bear an agricultural stamp, as fresh, lively and alive as the best produce from a farmers’ market” —Eric Asimov, NY Times.
