Tasting note
Dark and dramatic in color, the 2019 Archimedes presents robust aromatic impressions of toffee and dark roasted coffee. Rich, smooth tannins complement a full array of flavors, including char, tobacco, licorice, clove, cassis, caramel, and intense, juicy plum notes – each contributing to the complexity of a stunning and sophisticated vintage.
Vinification
Archimedes is sourced from high elevation vineyards in Alexander Valley. High elevation means prolonged sun exposure and less dramatic temperature shifts. Vines can synthesize flavor and phenolic compounds at a higher and more consistent rate. Light onshore winds also work to moderate the temperature.
