California
fruity
great finale
surprising

“A surprising blend of Carignan and Mourvèdre, with fruity aromas and a sumptuous finish!”

An unconventional wine from California! Fruity and spicy aromas, silky tannins, and that certain something that makes it truly sumptuous. A wild wine, just as its name suggests!
