Hamel Family Isthmus Sonoma Valley Red Blend

Deep ruby hued, a lifted nose of dark cherry, plum and fresh black and blue fruits unwinds from the glass mingled with violets, sage, umami and crushed stone. The palate is multidimensional and complete, centered around a layered textural core and depth that progresses with momentum towards an expansive finish. The wine shows an impeccable balance of refinement of tannin and lively freshness that allows it to be accessible in the near term. The wine will continue to develop and can be opened over the next ten to fifteen years.
