TASTING NOTES This exquisite cuvée unfolds with a seamless harmony of ripe, luscious fruit, bittersweet cocoa, and warm spice. Full-bodied and commanding, it is framed by bold, gripping tannins and lively acidity that breathe life into every sip. Layers of concentrated red and black cherries cascade across the palate, building toward a rich, velvety finish that lingers with satisfying depth. With its elegant balance and structured power, this wine is destined to evolve gracefully with age.
PRODUCTION NOTES All fruit for this wine is sourced from our vineyard. Once all of the wine is fermented in small lots and barrel-aged a bit, we take the very best barrel selection of each variety and blend it into Her Majesty. Aging total 16 months in new and previously used French oak. The Petite Sirah and Cabernet Sauvignon provide the structure and backbone of this wine, while the Zinfandel and Tempranillo bring out more fruit-forward characteristics. This wine is meant to exemplify the vintage, the vineyard and our terroir.
