This wine opens to sensuous aromas of blackberry, mocha, cigar box and baking spice that waft out of the glass. Luscious flavors of black forest fruits, dark roasted coffee, toffee and gently toasted vanilla spice. The mouthfeel is seemless with a silkiness that is supported by well-integrated tannins.
We'd love to hear from you.
“In the early ‘80s, my grandfather, John Goelet, commissioned cartoonist Ronald Searle to create a series of illustrations capturing the quirks and charm of the wine world. John and Ronald had become close friends through their shared love of the arts and humor and wanted to bring joy and laughter to the world of wine. I remember fondly my childhood leafing through a series of books that documented these illustrations. Something I keep at my desk as a reminder that wine should never be taken too seriously and that humor will always liven the mood. We wanted to share this as a way of remembering my grandfather, and bring some joy and humor to our world of wine without compromising the focus and attention we bring to our craft.”
