The story goes...that inexperienced sailors were defeated by enemy ships because their cannonballs missed the targets. The experienced ones would shoot a bullet first to determine the trajectory prior to the eventual cannonball being fired. The ‘calculations’ provided a better result with a higher percentage of their target being destroyed. Rather than a mass planting of a new grape variety, Ashley Ratcliff’s approach was to plan small plots, watch, wait and learn…the bullet if you will. When the right trajectory is determined, the cannonball is then loaded and fired and a new variety is introduced to the portfolio in the vineyard and bottle. 

This is a statement wine with cracking Mediterranean varieties! Fragrant and medium bodied. it marks 100 on the drinkability scale! Red-black berry fruit characters, light sweetness with ultra spicy notes! Cannonballs at the ready!
