Tasting Notes

Exceptionally fresh, energetic, and multi-dimensional, the 2023 Red Wine opens with pure aromas of red currant, tart pomegranate, and steeped cranberry layered with aromatic wild fennel, and damp forest floor. On the palate, it delivers luxurious weight and presence without heaviness – completely coating the tongue with vibrant red fruit, subtle French oak, and nuanced herbal complexity. Fine, chalky-smooth tannins provide seamless texture, while energetic acidity drives the wine forward through a remarkably long, persistent finish. Enjoy now or lay it down to age beautifully over the next 10 years.

Winemaking Notes:

Designed as a sophisticated nod to the unique blends that put Paso Robles on the map, this wine doesn’t play by traditional rules. Instead it is a harmonious balance of rich fruit, subtle earthiness, and delicate oak, offering a complex expression of all the Willow Creek District has to offer.

Winemaker Don Burns brought together incredible Bordeaux and Rhone varieties from G2 and G2 North Vineyards, showcasing what happens when brilliant fruit meets pure winemaking artistry. The result is a nuanced blend that highlights the beauty of balance.
