Add a little Syrah to a Bordeaux blend and you really spice things up! Aromatics of Fresh blackberry, Oregon blueberry, Capers and Green tea. Soft muddled green herbs, Bell pepper, Violet and Salty Sea Air. On the Palate is spiced cranberry with bright, yet balanced acidity.
When I raise a glass to toast friends, I prefer 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. With a ten-count finish, this wine will age well for over 2 decades. Cheers! - Bion
Grenache is the type of wine that will go with the foods of the season as we transition into Fall. Aromatics of caramel, tobacco, black walnut, stewed tomatillo, red plum, green herbs and slate. Flavors of cranberry, baking spice. Moderate acidity. This is the ultimate Thanksgiving wine! - Bion
