Description
This house Rhone blend is comprised of 40% Old Vine Carignane, 40% Petite Sirah, and 20% Old Vine Mourvèdre–all from Oakley’s San Francisco Bay appellation. Flavors of wild berries, coffee beans, cardamom-laced chocolate, beef jerky, and mulling spices, to 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.
