WINEMAKING NOTES:
The grapes for this wine were grown in the Arroyo Seco appellation of Monterey County, which sits on a gravelly alluvial plain beneath the Santa Lucia mountain range. Cool winds from Monterey Bay ensure gradual ripening and development of vibrant flavors. The rocky soils allow excellent drainage, enhancing intensity and promoting balanced ripeness and acidity.
This wine’s bouquet charms with scents of red cherry, ripe strawberry, cola and spice. On the palate soft mouthfeel complements flavors recalling plums and black cherry. Supple tannins and a dash of acidity end in a beautifully balanced, clean finish.
FOOD PAIRINGS:
Grilled salmon fillet, herb roast chicken, pizza margherita.
