Tasting Notes:

 

60% Syrah, 30% Zinfandel, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon

Named for our elevation here at the winery, this red wine has juicy aromas of plum, cherry and raspberry along with dried flowers and notes of mountain forest pine. Rich and juicy on the palate while being smooth and easy drinking. Quite pleasant on its own, but also great with burgers, ribs and all things barbecued. A mountain grown wine of elevated quality!
