About the Wines: 

2016 Paramount

• Bordeaux Blend
• Silky, approachable, and medium-bodied. 1210 cases produced. 
• Composition: 31% Cabernet Sauvignon, 31% Cabernet Franc, 30% Merlot, 8% Petit Verdot

Tasting Notes: Beautiful notes of dark raspberry, ripe cherry, dried figs, molasses, and fresh-brewed coffee abound on the nose. A balanced, medium-bodied wine dances between juicy fruit flavors and hints of savory baking spice. The palate boasts red plum, black cherry, dark cacao, and vanilla, which are complemented on the back by notes of chicory, cherry spice, and dried sage. Moderate alcohol, bright acidity, and silky, upfront tannins help to frame a long-lasting finish. 

2017 Heart Block 

• Sauvignon Blanc
• Creamy, elegant, and complex. 715 cases produced
• Composition: 100% Sauvignon Blanc, Present & Musque clones
• Tasting Notes: Bursting aromas of Meyer lemon, white grapefruit and toasted almonds lay foundation for the complex palate of tropical fruits, yellow peach, fresh honeycomb and candied ginger. Unsweetened coconut shavings and a touch of vanilla delightfully round on the back palate. This wine showcases well-balanced, racy acidity and a long-lasting finish. A  uniquely age-worthy Sauvignon blanc, this wine develops ever more beautifully in the cellar.
