2018 Field Blend Red Wine, Russian River Valley

Opens with a perfumed bouquet of dark fruit, including blackberry, blueberry, and black cherry, along with notes of earthy forest floor and subtle hints of spice. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied with a smooth and silky texture, but the tannins are firm and well-structured, providing balance and depth.

The flavors are layered and complex, with a core of dark fruit complemented by nuances of cocoa nib and coffee. The finish is long and lingering, with the perfect balance of sweet, acid and earth from the various grape varietals. The result is a wine that is both complex and approachable, with layers of flavor that evolve as the wine opens up.

A field blend is a type of wine made from multiple grape varieties that are grown together in the same vineyard and harvested at the same time. This blend of Zinfandel, Carignane and Alicante Bouschet is sourced from the Bisordi Vineyard in Russian River Valley, boasting vines over 100 years old.
