"Michael Cruse is the man behind Ultramarine, California’s currently most fashionable sparkling wine, and came to wine by listening to the thoughtful Terry Leighton speak. His Cruse Wine Co. focuses on more off the beaten path varieties, and his Monkey Jacket red is an esoteric blend of 51% Valdiguié, 13% Carignan, 10% Syrah, 8% Pinot Noir

"Michael Cruse is the man behind Ultramarine, California’s currently most fashionable sparkling wine, and came to wine by listening to the thoughtful Terry Leighton speak. His Cruse Wine Co. focuses on more off the beaten path varieties, and his Monkey Jacket red is an esoteric blend of 51% Valdiguié, 13% Carignan, 10% Syrah, 8% Pinot Noir and St. Laurent and the last 8% , an unknown field blend. 20% of the blend included whole clusters and the wine was raised in a variety of vessels, including cement tanks, stainless steel and old oak puncheons. The 2018 is 12.5% octane and offers up a lovely and complex bouquet of black cherries, lavender, woodsmoke, tree bark, dried eucalyptus and heather. On the palate the wine is bright, full-bodied and nicely light on its feet, with a good core and soil signature, moderate tannins and a long, complex and very well balanced finish . . . Fine juice and an utterly unique red wine!"
