This past fall, Ron Bunnell boosted his career total of Platinum Awards to 23. Along the way, he’s added to the lofty status of Painted Hills by winning four Platinums with standalone bottlings of this inky Bordeaux red. Complex aromas of dark cherry, President plum, Herbes de Provence and Choward’s Violet Mints lead to a luxuriously full-bodied, tongue-coating serving of cherries, sage, anise and violets.
