Evaluation: 2018 Kenefick Ranch Pickett Highway Pink


Kenefick Ranch’s Pickett Highway Pink is a curious mix of 63% petit verdot, 25% merlot, and 12% cabernet franc — all property grown in Calistoga, California, and aged for 18 months.

A dense wine, there’s a darkish and dusty high quality up entrance that evokes licorice and darkish chocolate amidst a brooding, tannic core. A barely underripe cassis character appears like this wine might use one other two-plus years earlier than hitting its prime and letting its fruit out of its present cage, although for now it has a sure austerity that provides it a degree of gravitas and intrigue. There’s no scarcity of depth right here, making for an expertise that might cross for a Napa cabernet sauvignon — regardless that there’s no cab within the mix.
