Sourced from the acclaimed Steel Plow Vineyards in the heart of Sonoma Valley, this CCOF-certified organic ranch is the epitome of Rhone varietals. A beautifully bright and fruit-forward, medium-weight red wine with notes of cherry pie, strawberry, and touches of floral notes.

Gold [GFW23]

2023 Global Fine Wine Challenge

95 | Aromatic and pure with high-toned juicy red fruit aromas. Spiced fruit compote. The palate is textural and long.

95 | Died herb grenache aromas, sweet fruit palate, lush and lovely. Soft, fine tannins. Blackberry and black olive. Long. Succulent.

86 | Palish colour. Big, super ripe aromas; baked red cherry, plum. Is this off-dry. Humungous level of alcohol makes the palate out of balance. I'm sure this style has many devotees but hard work.

88 | ripe red fruits, tannic grip, slightly smudged fruit character, super boozy finish, fresher is better, more refinement is needed
