The world opaque mean impenetrable to light and refers to the dark, inky, impenetrable color of our family's proprietary blend. We were so impressed by the Zinfandel, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Petite Sirah, Malbee, and Petit Verdot grapes from our estate vineyards in Paso Robles that we reserved the, for this special wine. After aging in French and American barrels for 10 months, our hand-crafted artisan blend reveals ripe flavors of raspberry and blackberry with notes of spice and vanilla.
