PRODUCTION NOTES
All fruit for this wine is sourced from our vineyard. Once all of the wine is fermented in small lots and barrel-aged a bit, we take the very best barrel selection of each variety and blend it into Her Majesty. Aging total 16 months in previously used French oak. The Petite Sirah and Cabernet Sauvignon provide the structure and backbone of this wine, while the Zinfandel and Tempranillo bring out more fruit-forward characteristics. This wine is meant exemplify the vintage, the vineyard and our terroir.
