A vibrant brick-red hue hints at the elegance to come. On the nose, this wine offers expressive aromas of boysenberry, black cherry, redwood, and dried rosemary. The palate opens with bright acidity and a soft, silky viscosity, unfolding into flavors of pomegranate and black plum. As the wine evolves across the mid-palate, grounding tannins emerge alongside notes of cardamom and vanilla bean. The texture is generous and full, with lengthening tannins and fresh acidity carrying the wine gracefully through a persistent finish. This wine is a true expression of its origin—capturing the essence of Brave & Maiden Estate, nestled by the river between the ocean and the mountains. A vivid reflection of place, it balances structure, freshness, and complexity with effortless poise.
