A robust, full-bodied dry red aged 10 months in American oak barrels. Nicely balanced with flavors reminiscent of dark fruit and chocolate. The grapes are custom grown for us in Washington. When we receive the fruit, we crush the berries right away and the long, warm fermentation on the skins begins. The fermentation lasts about 12 days and then we transfer the wine to American oak barrels.

Enjoy this full-bodied red at room temperature with hearty meats or chocolate desserts.
