Tasting Notes
78% Cabernet Sauvignon
10% Merlot
6% Malbec
6% Petit Verdot A red Bordeaux blend dominated by
cabernet sauvignon with merlot, malbec,
and petit verdot adding complexity and
depth to the blend. A rich nose of
blackberry, plum, chocolate, and vanilla
open this concentrated yet approachable
full-bodied wine. The flavors are dense and
ripe, marked by dark fruits, toasted oak, and
chocolate with a plush finish.

Winemaker Notes
The NumbSkull lineup started with the Mark Ryan family of wines with the 2014 vintage. Mark wanted to explore vineyards in Walla Walla and create wines representative of the valley. He continued to explore other AVA's and sites as the NumbSkull labels expanded.
Other Notes
Artwork collaboration with the talented Cherylin Andre, where she utilized her method 'flame painting' with scorch marks and soot.
