Winemaker
Brock Estes has made some wicked and bold Tannat wine with this 2017 vintage.
Having some great quality fruit sourced from Reddy Vineyards certainly helped
get this deep red wine off to a good start.
After pouring the first glass of this nearly opaque red wine, you immediately
smell the blueberry aromas in addition to a bit of pepper. Those bold fruit
flavors readily greet you on the first sip along with a melding of chalk and a
hint of vanilla. The tannins are at just the right level to allow this lovely
wine to pair nicely with a quality fatty dish. Awesome job on this one. Enjoy!
Wine Of The Moment is just that. A moment of trying out a new bottle of wine and sharing our thoughts and impressions. There is no planned wine bottle that is to be opened or set time that it will be tasted. It is what ever just happens to be opened...for the moment. On occasion, we may also post our feedback on new wineries that we have visited as well as unique cheeses. So, pull up your own plate of cheese, crackers, and fruit and enjoy these discussions.
