Cuvée Noir is a Cotes Du Rhone style red wine blend, with a few twists. Always Grenache based, the blend of varieties and vintages will change with every bottling. For this unique batch, we took Grenache from Madera, CA and blended it with Petite Sirah and Zinfandel from Lodi, CA to create a medium bodied, and smooth yet complex wine. 70% Grenache, 22% Petite Sirah and 8% Zinfandel.
Winemaker's Tasting Notes
A unique red blend, this wine offers bright red fruit flavors that burst forth from the glass while elements of sour cherry, lemon zest, cola, rosemary branch, and black licorice through the supple mid-palate and long finish.
