"The brilliant 2022 ‘Ellie’s’ revels in its boysenberry and black currant fruit aromatics alongside tar and exotic spices. Medium to full-bodied and filled with beautiful freshness with an opulent texture and core of black and blue fruits, enjoy now and over the next twelve years to come."

Our 2022 Ellie's opens with lifted, fresh herbal notes and a perfume of red currant, wild sage and star anise. The elegant texture of the palate is defined by refined and supple tannins balanced with a wash of acidity and a lengthy, silky finish.

Vintage Notes | Ample winter rain, followed by temperate and dry conditions through March gave us a good start to the vintage. The spring and summer months were consistent and warm, resulting in small but healthy canopies and balanced vines. Labor Day came with a curveball from Mother Nature in the form of a prolonged heat wave that accelerated harvest at many of our vineyard sites, followed immediately by much cooler weather and a bit of rain. This refreshing slow-down allowed the remaining grapes to hang a bit longer, yielding beautifully balanced fruit and polished tannin. Overall the 2022 vintage is fresh with pure, concentrated flavors. |
