Tasting notes
TASTING NOTES
Pouring a dark crimson, the nose offers a savory dark fruit profile, with hints of cinnamon. On the palate flavors of juicy blackberry fruit are highlighted with pepper. The finish coats the mouth with ripe tannins and extends showing nice balancing acidity.
Enjoy with Rack of Lamb with Blackberry Sauce, or a grilled Rib-Eye steak.

WINEMAKING INFORMATION
2021 Tempranillo La Chenaie The 2021 growing season was warmer than the 20-year average. The ‘heat dome’ experienced in late June (temps over 115 for a couple days) had no significant effect as the berries had just set. We picked by hand, then hand sorted, destemmed 100%, and fermented primarily with cultivated yeasts. Aged 18 months in 8% new, French oak staves with American oak heads.
