WineSaint
Wild cherry and forest floor mingle with worn leather in this mature expression. The wine shows classic Santa Cruz Mountains character. Earthy, mineral-driven. But the fruit is beginning to fade. Medium-bodied with soft tannins that have resolved completely. Drink now while the tertiary complexity still holds.
