Distinct and luscious, it doesn't get more rich & warming than this beauty. This is super low yeilding, old vine Mourvedre from one of Cali's top producer of 'Rhone varietals' - it is big, bold, decadent and oh so satifying.
Produced from Cline's oldest vines, that only crop at 2 to 3 tons per acre, this wine sees ten months in American oak, a quarter of it new, giving a lovely chocolate and stewed plum flavour with minty notes. This wine has lush soft tannins, but big weight, and it's down right delicious.
Expect flavours of dark plum, cherry liqueurs, cola cube and old fashioned root beer leads to complex flavours of integrated oak, spice and a smooth and juicy finish. A wine which combines plenty of ripe cherry fruit with a unique soul and character.

The Producer:
his family-owned vineyard and winery in Sonoma's Carneros Valley was established in 1982 by Fred Cline, descendant of Italian US settlers, having originally founded the winery in Oakly, Contra Costa County, cultivating Rhone varieties and Zinfandel on vines that dated back to 1906.
In the 1990s the family moved their operation to a 350 acre ranch in Carneros Valley and in 2000 they adopted sustainable farming techniques and built the largest solar panelled winerey in California and since 2005 has fully adopted solar energy into it and upgrading the original array with the latest technology in 2018, designed to offset 100% of the winery's electrical consumption. Fred continued to see the potential of Rhone varieties and Zinfandel in his vineyards and produces focused, terroir-driven wines.
