Redwood Valley, California

100% Carignan

The perfect everyday red—bright enough for warmer days but with enough depth for cool evenings. Darin Colombini has been farming these 80-year-old, head-trained vines in Redwood Valley since he helped his dad as a child. This is the wine you give to someone who “doesn't like New-World wine". Tastes of blackberries, forest herbs, plum, and crushed stone. Medium-bodied with vibrant acidity, silky tannins, and a spice-laced, energetic finish. Eleven months elevage in neutral French oak created a wine that captures the essence of these old vines—vibrant fruit backed by structure and complexity that only old vines can deliver.
