Layer Cake Primitivo
A balance of elegance and power; inky black fruit, spice and white pepper, jammy black cherries, plums, blackberry fruit, truffles, tar, and espresso. Warm and rich in the mouth with a creamy texture; the ripe fruit is well supported by the deep structure of the wine.
Layer Cake Shiraz
Dark, dense and creamy, complex aromas of black plum, Bing cherry blackberry and pepper merge with licorice, tobacco, mocha and dark chocolate this is one inky Shiraz; an explosion of dark super ripe wild blackberry, touch of cigar box finishing with a mélange of exotic spices. A pure fruit bomb…complete from attack through a long, lingering finish
Layer Cake Cote du Rhone
Ancient vines planted in seemingly impenetrable terrain due to the top layer of granite cobbles provided us with signature soils to harvest Syrah for Layer Cake. We sourced from vineyards surrounding Chateauneuf du Pape in order to create a substantial bottle of Syrah reflective of the New World winemaking style we bring to the region. The result is a ripe, accessible example of Syrah; as always, we make Layer Cake to be ‘rich, always rich’
Hundred Acre Gold
The nose is balanced between the purity of the Chardonnay with fresh cut meadow, lime zest and white petal flowers and the Gerwurtztraminer and Viognier's stone fruits and spice. The gammut of flavors are exuded from melon to meyer lemon while the eye is caught gazing at the 24k gold flakes.
