84% Lake Cty, 13% Santa Barbara, 3% Monterey Cty
An outstanding wine and simply the best I've sampled in the sub $20 class to date. The pallet is treated to a rich burst of flavor initially, quickly followed by highly present oak-casket flavoring. A touch of sweetness, so subtle its highly unlikely to be perceived as such by most drinkers, diminishes or eliminates the usual defects, such as greeness, harshness, and the like.
Low greeness, Moderate-low bitterness.
