Vineyard:
The deep garnet color of our award-winning 2007 El Dorado Nebbiolo is just a prelude to the ripe, dark fruit aromas that are so unique to the varietal. Elegant but structured, the palate is quite rich with supple tannins quite capable to stand up to the richest of foods. Allow a little time in the glass and the wine continuously reveals new layers of complexity.
