+ GRAPES: Organic. 50% Grenache + 50% Tempranillo.
+ PROFILE: Complex. Dry...but juicy. Lightly spicy...but silky. Crunchy dark berries notes from the Grenache meet brooding berry tones from the Tempranillo to create this perfect storm. Exceptional value. A mere 100 cases produced.
+ FUNDAMENTALS: Single-vineyard, estate fruit farmed on the famed Shake Ridge Ranch in Amador County, CA. Grown in what the woman winemaker, Cary Q, called 'a magical vineyard': the grapes are grown in volcanic-rich soils, layered quartz, basalt, shale, and soapstone. Wild yeast, no fining or filtration, minimal sulfites at bottling.
