About the wine
Intense and supple California red - A mix of 5 varietals & vineyards!
Derek, your Angel-funded winemaker, says:
- "The winemaking goal for this wine can be summed up in two words: purity and intensity. I sought to let the pure fruit flavors shine alongside intense aromatics and complex flavors."
- "It's an uncommon and compelling blend of 5 varietals from 5 California vineyards. Each varietal adds something to the overall wine, from the Pinot Noir's bright fruit, to the Merlot's supple tannins, to the Cabernet's structure, to the Petite Sirah's dark intensity."
- "Open with good food, good friends, and good times!"
Best before
It is drinking great now and will get even better in the next three to five years, with the structure [tannins, alcohol, and acidity] in perfect balance.
