Daybreak, I load the van and set out. The path quickly changes from highway to frontage road, to side road, to no road. Addresses begin to dwindle, the buildings become fields, but I’m not looking at the road. Eyes wide open for the thick lines of vines rolling through any river basin or over any outcropping along the horizon. I must continue every day. These lines will come together to create the next vintage tale.

TASTING NOTES
Fresh blueberries, hint of black pepper, cinnamon and cardamom. Tart black cherries and licorice on the palate, with a smooth and refreshing finish.
