This wine’s magically layered nose blends graphite, black cherries, dried violets, hints of savory smoke meats and the oddly captivating scent of composting rose petals. From a vineyard on the appellation’s eastern edge come a spice rack of flavors, from black peppercorns and hoisin sauce to soy and blackberry fruit.
