Dusty garnet color. Aromas and flavors of red and black fruit, cigar box and leather, and cocoa and baking spice with a satiny, bone-dry medium body and a warming, interesting, medium-length finish imparting notes of red and black berries, cocoa nibs, leather and tea, and dill and dry straw with medium tannins and light oak flavor. A good house red to open any day of the week and have with a burger.

Other US Red

'Other Red' is a catch-all category for both uncommon grape varietals and uncommon combinations of varietals. There are little pockets of other red varietals grown throughout the US. In California, Italian varietals such as Barbera, Gignolino, Primitivo, and Nebbiolo and esoteric Rhone varietals like Cinsault and Carignano can be found. Tempranillo, best known as the principal red variety of Spain’s Rioja, can also be found in small plantings in the Southwest where hot grown conditions favor the grape. Many producers throughout the US produce blends of Bordeaux with non-Bordeaux varietals such as Zinfandel, Petit Sirah, Syrah and even hybrids like Chambourcin that fall under our Other US Red category.
