2017 Tempranillo, Christian's Reserve
2017 Tempranillo, Christian's Reserve
Rich, dark, meaty, miso, tobacco and molasses on the nose. Delicate herbal notes of wild thyme overlay the heavier base notes. On the palate there's a rich entry and more savory notes coupled with juicy ripe plums. An earthy scrubland note lingers on the finish, reminding of the scents you encounter on the beautiful drive up to the Diamond Mine vineyard in the Pinzgauer!
The berries were gently crushed prior to cold-soaking for four days at 60 degrees fahrenheit. The must fermented for 12 days with pump-overs twice a day.
Perfect companio to Six Sigma beef with roasted root vegetables.
100% Tempranillo, grown at Six Sigma Ranch. Aged 24 months in French oak, 40% new, 60% used.
Alcohol 13.8%. Production 600 cases.
