From the renowned Bien Nacido Vineyard crafted from Block I - Clone 4 & Block 11 - Clone 76 and Mt. Eden. Flat to a slightly undulating blocks on the lower bench. Alluvial soil. Consistent coastal winds. Northeast to Southwest row direction. Wines from this section tend to carry a tropical note with good acidity.

There are aromas of banana custard, fennel bulbs, chamomile flowers and buttered toast that lift from the glass. Oak aging has provided rich crème brûlée, brown spice, and toasty notes. The palate opens with rich textured notes of stone fruit, golden apple pie-a-la mode, papaya, and sweetened cream. Elegant and balanced with balanced with Marcona almonds, lavash bread, and a hint of salinity with a long bright finish.
