2019 Estate Cuvée Cody
40% Alicante Bouschet, 40% Zinfandel, 20% Petite Sirah
Kentucky Ranch Vineyard
Adelaida District Paso Robles
25 cases, bottled March 2023 (30 months in barrel)
This bottling, coming 100% from our home vineyard at the Kentucky Ranch,
represents the second winemaking effort of Sherman and Michelle’s youngest child, Cody. A blend of Alicante Bouschet, Zinfandel, and Petite Sirah, this warm and generous wine shows black fruit compote and mulling spices. The fruit and body are supported by sturdy tannin, integrated oak influence, and surprising acidity. We expect the wine to cellar exceptionally for up to 10 years. We'll be sure to save Cody a bottle for his 21st birthday!
