| This blend of 45% Syrah, 33% Petite Sirah, 13% Grenache and 9% Tannat is one of the best quality-for-value bottlings of each vintage. Aromas of dark blue fruits meet with a rusty, sanguine minerality on the nose. The palate adds oak spice, firm tannins and bloody meats to the dark blue core. |
The clusters were picked during the cooler morning temperatures and cold soaked for two days prior to fermentation. Various pump-over techniques were implemented during progressive stages of fermentation to enhance fruit extraction and balance out the tannin structure. The wine was then aged in both small and large format French, Hungarian and American oak barrels for 18 months in order to add complexity while enhancing a soft, velvety finish. This fruit-forward wine is a natural go-to for just about any meal.
