The 2015 ‘Northern Blend’ by superstar winemaker Sean Boyd shows a plethora of aromatics including Asian spice, cigar box, lychee and damp earth with lighter wet stone tones. The hedonistic character on the nose brings you back to the glass for more. The palate is both lithe and rich, showing a marvelous texture that coats the mid-palate. Umami, Hoisin sauce, cigar ash and blackberry cobbler flavors beautifully mingle in the glass. Seductive, with marvelous tension, this is a stunning wine by Rotie Cellars.
