A dark mauve core with a neon purple rim, the wine stains everything. Opening aromatics on the 2022 Machete are gorgeous immediately: ripe pluot, carne asada, new cowboy boots, lilacs, espresso bean and wet concrete. On the palate, layers upon layers reveal themselves, from a plum galette topped with fior di latte gelato to 85% cacao dark chocolate to barbequed tri-tip and sweet oak. Puckering tannins to finish, the wine closes on a high note with a touch of blood orange zest and lingering acidity.

A blend based on Petite Sirah, the 2022 Red Blend Machete features classic Petite Sirah aromas of black cherries, blueberries and licorice. Full-bodied and big-boned, this is very ripe, yet it's surprisingly tart, mouthwatering and bright on the finish, framed by ripe, softly dusty tannins.
