2022 Peyrassol La Croix Rose IGP Méditerranée
France 50% Cinsault, 40% Grenache, 8% Syrah, 2% Carignan. Beautiful pale and delicate pink in color. Aromas of small wild berries mingle on the nose with a hint of juniper. This spicy touch supports a mouth built on vivacity reminiscent of exotic citrus fruits. The whole is harmonious, clean and refreshing.
2023 Agricola Punica Samas White Wine
Italy Vivid yellow straw color with soft, green hints. This silky and well-balanced wine has notes of citrus and tropical fruits with Mediterranean herbs including sage, and a fresh minerality.
2021 Trentadue Old Patch Red- OPR
California The 2021 OPR is predominately Zin blended with Petite Sirah and Carignane resulting in very fruity yet complex and full-bodied Rhone- like style wine. The wine has dark red color with intense black cherry aromas, blueberries, and cherry cola as an immediate impression. With aeration nuances of ripe plums, vanilla and cocoa are showing with a dose of toasted oak and dark licorice. On the mouth the wine is fresh and juicy with youthful brightness, finishing long and fruity. Blend: 55% Zinfandel, 27% Petite Sirah, 17% Carignane, 1% Sangiovese
