Description
This house Rhone Blend is comprised of 40% Syrah from Cattich’s Russian River Valley ranch and 40% Petite Sirah and 20% Mourvèdre from San Francisco Bay’s Sandy Lane Vineyard. Aromas of spiced meat, saddle, earth, and a splash of truffle make for a richly perfumed red wine. Flavors of wild berries, coffee beans, cardamom-laced chocolate, and mulling spices, balance moderate acidity, firm tannins, and a generous, round texture ending with a long, spicy finish. This sipper can be paired with a nice cigar, a rich venison stew by campfire, a tofu stir-fry on a sailboat striding on its side, or with any nostalgia-making trifle of a circumstance.
