2018 Redtail

For Redtail’s fourth vintage we combined 54% Grenache, 27% Syrah (fermented partially in whole cluster), and 19% Mourvèdre.  Despite it being a small portion of the blend, the partial stem inclusion imparts fresh forest floor aromatics, savory spices on the palate, and rounds the mouthfeel out with a beautiful texture of plush tannins.

In the glass the 2018 Redtail begins with a bouquet of fresh cut cedar, black cherries, and fresh cracked pepper, followed by a medley of sun-warmed berries and a velvety finish of Indian spices and sweet pipe tobacco.
