Nose
On the nose, notes of black tea, dark blue fruit, pipe tobacco, and warm spices are
prominent.
Palate
The wine is full-bodied with medium tannins that linger after the last sip.
Growing Conditions
The 2021 growing season was quite memorable. It was hot and dry, which made it challenging to grow wine grapes. Harvesting started two weeks earlier than usual and was completed by October 1st.
Bottling
August 15th, 2023
Food Pairing
Mushrooms, hard cheeses, potato gratin, flank steak – Bordeaux-style blends handle big flavors, fat, and proteins superbly. We find it’s a favorite match for homemade anchovy pizza.
