Taste
Row 34 Cask 6. Crafted from 73% Cabernet Sauvignon, 14% Petite Sirah, 8% Petit Verdot, and 5% Zinfandel, this wine offers a full-bodied, concentrated yet lively profile. On the nose and palate, it bursts with notes of ripe black cherry, blackberries, plum, and dark chocolate, complemented by nuances of violets, baking spice, espresso, and lightly toasted oak. Plush, fruit-forward, and supported by smooth tannins and refreshing acidity, it has a lingering finish that highlights both the Paso terroir and expert blending.
Blend: 73% Cabernet Sauvignon, 14% Petite Sirah, 8% Petite Verdot and 5% Zinfandel
