Critics’ tasting notes
-
“Brown Brothers has always been proud of the work of its small kindergarten winery in developing small batches of interesting/alternative varieties. The Winemaker’s Series gives winemakers the chance to keep small parcels of wine separate. This one is a real charmer, plummy and approachable right now, adorned in brilliant purple hues and Heathcote lifted aromatics, anise and dried herbs. The seasoning (via both French and American oak) is nicely downplayed. Lively and fresh, it’s a wine made for the table.”
