Opens with mulled cherries and cinnamon, then fresh plums, dark cherries and light baking spices make a seamless palate. Full-bodied but subdued, integrated and fascinating in flavors, with a long finish. Drink or hold.\" -J.G.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e94 Points - Decanter:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Rosella's Vineyard is situated in the northernmost stretches of the Santa Lucia Highlands and is planted to the Pisoni Clone of Pinot Noir. It's a late ripening and cold site, and the clone develops very thick skins, resulting in a more muscular tannin profile. Aged 15 months in 50% new French oak. Bright and expressive, and significantly lifted with dried floral aromatics mocha and sagebrush. Those tannins, powerful as they are, have a plump and satiny quality here from excellent management by winemaker Shane Finley. Pomegranate, black raspberry, and spiced plums abound, layered with juicy blood orange acidity. A chocolaty richness builds with crushed cocoa nib notes on the finish. Drinking Window: 2024-2038.\" -Jonathan Cristaldi (Feb 2024)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e92 Points - Wine Spectator:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"A ripe, flattering style, with a creamy feel to its mulberry and boysenberry compote flavors, laced liberally with singed anise and apple wood notes. Fine acidity keeps this honest enough through the sanguine-tinged finish. Drink now through 2028. 187 cases made.\" -James Molesworth (Mar 2024)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SOUTHERN \/ AMERICAN \/ PACIFIC WINE \u0026 SPIRITS","offers":[{"title":"750 mL","offer_id":53807292744045,"sku":null,"price":124.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0481\/8940\/7391\/files\/dk-grail-rosellas-vineyard-pinot-noir-2021.png?v=1787618454","url":"https:\/\/artisan.wine\/products\/dk-grail-convene-rosellas-vineyard-pinot-noir-2021-santa-lucia-highlands-california","provider":"Artisan W\u0026S","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
