Winemaker Notes: “A fever dream of watching John Wick and Willy Wonka in the most unlikely of buddy cop comedies. Charred plum pistol kickback meets Cherry Fun Dip. Worn leather jackets drive while strawberry gumdrops ride shotgun. Star anise attitude and Swedish fish wisecracks play bad cop-good cop while interrogating perps. Cruising streets of lavender twilight and tobacco haze, one sweet-talks their way out of trouble, the other shoots first and asks questions never. But when the red-faced commish threatens to pull them from the case, you can bet they’ll get their man.”
Jeb Dunnuck 96 Points: “Based on 100% Grenache from a handful of great sites in the Central Coast (Slide Hill, Full Draw, Bien Nacido, and Rolph vineyards), the On the Road spent a whopping 30 months in 70% new French oak. It has gorgeous black cherry, kirsch, melted licorice, and roasted garrigue-like aromatics that carry to a full-bodied, concentrated, yet broad and expansive red with ripe tannins, plenty of mid-palate depth, and a great finish. “
