This is one exciting wine for us. Every great thing we grow and believe in is blended together. Well, at least many of the greatest berries we picked this year.
A highly uncommon and unique blend of a co-fermentation of Grenache and Syrah (75/25), matched up by almost equal parts of Callet. Then spiced up with a barrel of Pinot noir and a dash of Merlot. Just because it tastes great.
Now, the different components will each spend some time in either oak or steel before they finally meet sometime mid-next year.
Having tasted the blend already in the laboratory, we’re pretty sure we can reach incredibly heights with this. More to come soon.
Blend: Now hang on…
