96+ points The Wine Advocate: "Deep, layered scents of pomegranate, rhubarb, tea leaves, salami and dried flowers. It gains purity as it airs in the glass, and its spicy undertones seem on the precipice of bursting open. The medium-bodied palate features concentrated, spicy flavors structured by powerful, powdery tannins and chiseled acidity, though its fruit is still youthfully coiled. Give it 3-5 years in the cellar to blossom."
Only the second vintage of Lewman as a Bethel Heights estate vineyard, it has nonetheless instantly established itself as one of their most compelling plots of land (note, the best-of-the-best Casteel includes a chunk of Lewman). Fascinating and beguiling, elements of bright expressiveness and dark mysteriousness create fireworks. Give it even a few minutes of air to open in the glass and it fans out. -Marcus
We elected to focus our attention on the southern blocks of Lewman, which we felt had the best natural balance on the property. One of the many things that makes this property unique is the way savory and fruit come together: aromas of shiitake mushroom, soy, and cooking chocolate layer over black cherry, blueberry, and blood orange. There is a density and gravity to this vintage and this wine that will reward 3-5 years of patience and I think the real payoff will come in 10-15 years. -Ben Casteel, winemaker
