Ancestor
TASTING NOTES:
The 2020 Ancestor features aromas of blueberries,
cassis, raspberry, and a touch of mocha from the new
French oak. The entry is soft, rich, and mouth-coating
with flavors of red currant and olallieberry. The juicy
midpalate segues into a structured finish with integrated
tannins complemented by flavors of the French oak.
Pair with roasted meats, reduction sauces, Osso Bucco,
and dark chocolate!
Drink now through 2040.
