This complex and layered wine is opaque and dark-cherry red in appearance with bright and enticing aromas of leather, smoked meat, cedar, brown sugar and wild blackberry. On the palate it is extremely balanced with a beautiful dark fruit entry followed by a full mid-palate weighted with dark chocolate, cinnamon, vanilla and soft, persistent tannins. The structured Cabernet Sauvignon blended with the powerful, hedonistic and elegant Rhone varieties from the Estate vineyard complement each other perfectly in this seamless and supple wine.

Blend: 46% Cabernet Sauvignon 25% Syrah 19% Mourvèdre 10% Grenache

About Westwood Vineyard

In 2001, Carl Stanton, the Founding Partner, along with a few friends, happened upon the site that is now Westwood Estates. With a mission to find a vineyard to grow extraordinary Rhone & Burgundian varietals, they lucked upon this unique site, in the northernmost end of Sonoma Valley. The dream is now a reality, with 23 acres under vine at the Annadel Gap Vineyard, cared for by a world-class team producing wines that have gained recognition as true expressions of the vineyard.
