Only 75 cases of Special Family Reserve were produced from the best of the 2006 vintage lots. As with the the 2005, the base is our intense clone 7 on St. George rootstock, with clone 4 blended for its intensity and structure. The wine is deep ruby in color and offers aromas of wild black raspberry with hints of chocolate and espresso. On the palate the wine is densley packed and shapely with dark fruit flavors, noteworthy dusty tannins and superb length.
