Additional Information

It’s a long and winding road up Mendocino’s inland ridgeline to Bonterra’s Butler Ranch estate vineyard, a Biodynamic site that sits at an elevation of more than 2,000 feet. This cuvée (81% Syrah, 14% Petite Sirah, 4% Grenache, and 1% Viognier) leads off with aromas of black-peppered plums, tobacco, and roasted coffee; savory notes take shape on the palate, where saddle leather, grilled meat, fennel, and violets are punctuated by spice, dark chocolate, and minerality.

WE93 - Wine Enthusiast
Made by Winemaker Jeff Cichocki from biodynamic grapes grown in the Butler Ranch Vineyard, this opens with concentrated aromas of ripe blueberry and spice that move the full-bodied palate with equally focused fruit flavors. A velvety, lightly gripping texture and good fruit concentration help bring on a lingering finish.
