Big Basin Vineyards Red Altitude 2292 from Coastview Vineyard in Monterey County (2018) opens with tart aromas of blistered black plum and violet.
On the palate, vibrant blackberry and herbal thyme mingle with graphite notes, framed by bright acidity and polished tannins. This Bordeaux blend—led by Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon—delivers a silky, harmonious flow reminiscent of Right Bank Pomerol. From the high-elevation Gabilan Mountains, it captures site-driven elegance with minimal intervention. Enjoy with grilled lamb chops or roasted root vegetables.
