Like Frida Kahlo this wine has “Power with graceful elegance”. Grenache can have pretty, fruity & floral aromatics with soft tannins, whereas Syrah is very dark in color, boldly flavored and can be quite tannic. The two fuse beautifully together to make art in the glass.
We blended a surreal assemblage of intensely aromatic and powerfully flavored wines fused together to create a bold wine with medium tannins and a long finish to help you sleep dreamily at night.
We love the Pomerol magic of Merlot with Cabernet Franc. These two varietals complement each other, creating rich and dense dark fruits, enhanced by dried herbs and spices, and graced by earthy minerality, all balanced by piquant acidity.
This is one of those wines I expect people to say “Well That’s Interesting”. They may not like it, they may love it, or they may be confused and unsure what to say. To me that is true art. I was called to make poetry in a glass. This image is as “interesting” and tantalizingly intriguing as this wine.
