Wine description | Its intense billowing fragrance begins with blue fruits then shifts markedly to red fruit and flowers – blueberry, mulberry, blackberry, then bing cherry, violet, and rose. Ripe fruit commingles with tart pomegranate and winter spice, further revealing sassafras root, subtle spearmint, and cherry cola with gravel, loam, and hint of minerality. Mouthfeel is dense, rich, and decadent with loads of luscious fruit, vanillin, and cascading spice. |
A Californian Red Blend can surprise you every time. And that's because California is a haven for grape growers, where microclimates are plentiful, and sunshine is guaranteed. This leads to cultivation of many different varietals, each of which may add their own secret sauce to the blend.
Imagine you're a winemaker and you have an idea of a wine you're reaching for...It should have bursts of rip...
