WINEMAKER NOTES

“Blending Origin is always an interesting adventure. Ascertaining which lots play well together and support each other is different every year. In 2019, we were able to get very close to a true Bordeaux blend with the five major grape varieties plus a small amount of Petite Sirah creating a wine with a little more freshness and softness.”

Aging: 16 months in 30% new oak
