Father-son winemakers Joe and Sam Miller use fruit from the vineyard Dick Graff planted in 1989 for this interesting wine, which shows preserved lemons, dried apples, crushed ants, iodine and yogurt on the nose. There’s lemon pith, smoked citrus, Japanese pear flesh and crisp plum flavors on the palate.
