Wine Review: This dark ruby colored wine is made from Bobal grapes. It opens with a mild oak and boysenberry bouquet. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied, slightly acidic and easy going. The flavor profile is an oak infused red currant and gentle plum blend with notes of minerality throughout. The finish is dry, chewy, and its very dusty tannins and mild prune flavors linger for quite some time after the wine is gone.

Winemaker Notes: Partially oak-aged, a concentrated yet elegant and refreshing red of deep color. Varietal notes of wild mountain herbs, red fruit and minerals predominate. The finish is consistent and long, leaving a refreshing acidity in the mouth. Calls for a wide variety of grilled meats and vegetables.
