CALIFORNIA

A note from the winemaker: This vintage is composed of Teroldego, Montepulciano, Zinfandel, and Grenache. Carbonic-macerated Montepulciano lays the primary foundation of bright plum/haw flake and tomato with a fine, powdery tannic structure. Teroldego contributes rich pigment, a moderate tannic structure, and complex earthy/animal notes. Zinfandel defines an acid-driven backbone with sour cherry notes. A minor fraction of plush Grenache adds a dash of concentration and strawberry fruit leather tones.

Food Pairings: Red sauce pastas, pizza, or the company of good friends!
