James Suckling 99 Points: “An amazingly complex, dynamic wine that demands your attention from the first sniff to the lingering finish. Aromas of redwood forest, rosemary, purple flowers, and black cherries, then black tea, pomegranate, dark cherry, dried raspberry, and wild mushroom flavors. Fine-grained moderate tannins and crunchy acidity give it such a firm backbone. Drink now or hold.”
Winemaker Notes: “Our Royal St. Robert bottling is dedicated to our grandfather Robert, who has been our greatest philosophical teacher on our journey in wine. This special cuvée is a selection from our coastal vineyards, giving a window into the rugged hills of the westerly Sonoma Coast. The 2023 vintage leads with captivating aromas of crushed wild berries, black cherries, rose petals, and coastal moss. Continued floral notes, black tea, and bergamot follow, giving way to coastal fern and forest floor. The powerful red and black fruit core is delicately interlaced with the notes of flowers and tea and coupled with an exotic spice box, all seamlessly woven together in a persistently long and seemingly everlasting finish.”
