This
red blend from their Texas High Plains AVA vineyard shows how well good managed
soil can yield quality fruit. For this
14.6 abv wine, most of the fruit is Tempranillo with some Merlot, Carignan, Petit
Verdot, and Cabernet Sauvignon. Lots of
blackberry, some fig, and a bit of cherry will be on the nose of this lovely
bottle. The wine is bright and elegant with some earthy undertones. Tannins are about medium, and it does have good
acids. There is a bit of smoke on a very nice finish that will leave you with a
that “ah” sensation after every sip. This wine should continue to be one that
you can cellar for a few more years if you have extra bottles. Cheers to the
Dirt Farmer!
