Winemaker's Notes
Always among the most challenging blends to assemble, Neighbors is one of our most complex wines of this vintage. Dark and rich in color, the bouquet of cherry cobbler, Santa Rosa plums, fennel, clove, rose petal and toasty oak immediately fills your glass. The palate is layered with flavors of wild blackberry, cherry cola, cassis, mineral, spice and toasty oak. From our best growers along Westside Road – Allen, Bacigalupi, Bucher, Flax and Rochioli Riverblock. Alc. 14.3%.
