2015 Insider
This year’s release is a wonderful Bordeaux style blend with an Écluse twist as it includes the first Tannat of our very own Lock Vineyard. The gorgeous violet color leads to aromas of toasted oak, dark fruit and coffee. This wine was beautifully aged in more new oak creating a rich palate with flavors of black cherry, dark berries and smoke with a lusciously bold finish.
