Winemaker's Notes: "...Simpatico is a beautiful reflection of the remarkable 2012 vintage and our 10-acre Rutherford Estate Vineyard... dark garnet in color with great depth and character. Enticing aromas of blackberry, baking spice, plum and cassis foreshadow a juicy palate. Complex layers of blackberry, dark cherry and dark fruits are wonderfully corralled by the youthful acidity and refined tannin. The... 2012 Simpatico is a wine of immense potential."
