East Block produces a fragrant, pure, lifted style of Chardonnay, a singular vineyard expression that favors elegance over power. Enticing scents of freesia, Anjou pear, and honey follow through on the palate, combining with hints of sweet oak and flint.

Profound and complex, the wine opens with aromas of violets and candied plums, followed by a plush mouthfeel with intense juicy black fruit flavors and a firm tannin structure that bodes very well for long aging.

The allure of this Cabernet wraps warm red and purple fruits in spice, cedar, and shaved chocolate while keeping flavors in perfect proportion. A subtle finesse and fine texture seems to evolve with every glass.

Indelible characteristics of pure cassis, damson plum, and crystalized violet. During aging, this classic Cabernet takes on French oak allowing secondary notes of blonde Virginia tobacco, vanilla bean, Giandjua chocolate, and Indonesian coffee to emerge.  

A gorgeous bouquet of rich black cherry, baking spice, and currant interspersed with flavors of bitter-sweet chocolate, cedar, tobacco and sweet Madagascar vanilla.

Exotic dark spice and chocolate flavors are reminiscent of the finest cacao mixed with distant Asian spice. Much as early explorers traveled the world for new and exotic spices, this Cabernet provides an otherworldly sensory experience.
