REPLICA MISBEHAVED PNOI17

Clean and transparent, ruby core with purple and pink hues leading out to the rim of the glass. The nose leads with lifted fruits of cranberry jam, blackberry, and boysenberry. Confected and ripe in style transitioning into secondary flavors of toasty coconut, caramel, and dark chocolate – all signs of new oak. A subtle floral note of potpourri and delicate herbs add detail to the ripe fruit and oak tones. The wine is fruit forward on the nose, but still balanced and complex.

On the palate, more blue fruit of boysenberry and blueberry dominate, with supporting flavors of cranberry and black cherry. Additional flavors of coconut, caramel, and chocolate along with the floral tones compliment the fruit. The wine is ripe and forward, but still finishes balanced and dry with bright acidity and appropriate richness. The 2018 vintage was more consistent and produced wines that were classically styled, well balanced and representative of a great vintage.
