Limpid ruby-red. Spice-accented raspberry and cherry cola aromas are complemented by suggestions of candied flowers and mocha. Sweet and expansive on the palate, offering juicy red and blue fruit flavors that slowly firm up through the midpalate. Clings with strong authority on the finish, which is framed by smooth, discreet tannins. 50% new oak.

Medium ruby-purple, the 2016 Pinot Noir Shea Vineyard has a nose of cranberry sauce and sliced blueberries over cinnamon stick and clove suggestions plus hints of potpourri and tilled earth. Medium-bodied, it has wonderful intensity of fruit in the mouth with juicy acidity and grainy tannins, finishing long and spicy. 4,027 cases produced.
