youthfully tannic finish

The 2012s from Diamond Creek represent an homage to founder Al Brounstein and the winery’s 40th anniversary

Duclaux, Cote Rotie other_regions This graceful blanc de blancsLoaded with dense black cherry and black currant fruit, this also sports lots of game and ferrous notes that are deeply rooted on the finish. Long, juicy finish echoes with fruit and dark chocolate. Lovely. Drink now through 2014. 1,600 cases made. JM
