"a brilliant fusion of raspberries with an undercurrent of vanilla and is bursting with bright fruit flavors. This is a deep dark, luscious wine with just the right amount of oak." - Michael Cervin, Central Coast Magazine The Art of the Blend, May 2009

A big, dark luscious wine with just the right touch of oak. This wine’s raspberry-vanilla nose and tastebud coating texture accentuate lingering, full and bright flavors that challenge the imagination.
Black: because of the rich darkness of color it attained from the beginning. Nova: because the fruit and flavors of this wine are a “burstf brightness”, as defines the birth of a celestial Nova. With age, these flavors will subside to a wonderfully complex fusion of essential elements.

POINTS
"A grand blend of 60% Zinfandel and 40% Syrah, made from exclusive Estate grown fruit, this is a lush, big, and ripe wine. Twelve months of aging in New American Oak brought out great complexity. Leisurely swirled and sipped, rich layers of flavors unfurl with cherry and raspberry flowing into deeper notes of vanilla, clove, oak, and spice. Bright, smooth, and lingering at its finish, this is a wine not soon forgotten. Only 300 cases were produced, so get yourself a bottle while you can."
