Description

Revelation is a proven tasting room favorite, year after year, and this vintage will be no different. Blueberry, black cherry and boysenberry aromas are dominant, while hints of cinnamon, vanilla, rose petal, toasty oak and sage round out the nose. Dark fruit flavors of black cherry, red plum and blueberry show through on the palate with anise, baking chocolate and vanilla to follow, making this a delicious blend not to be missed.

Red meats and game pair especially well with Revelation as do mushroom or peppered sauces. Or try it with tuna or salmon with a rich sauce. 

Wine Critic Reviews
"...positively stellar. Deep, layered and beautifully resonant in the glass, the 2017 is so expressive today. The finish alone is striking, but really everything about the 2017 elevates it to one of the most successful wines of the year." ~ Antonio Galloni's Vinous "...smoking good, with meaty, gamey, peppery notes as well as lots of dark fruits, medium body, light, silky tannins, and a terrific sense of elegance. The Syrah is front and center today, yet the Grenache keeps it supple and beautifully textured. It’s going to evolve for 7-8 years or more." ~ Jeb Dunnuck "...gamy and tarry on the nose, with smoked boysenberry-fruit aromas. More exotic purple-fruit touches show on the sip, where smoked meat and peppercorn flavors also arise. It needs a bit more time to fully blossom." ~ Wine Enthusiast
