Red Wine Blend 2019 ‘Sea Enchantress’ fra Peirano Estate Vineyards, Lodi
The “Sea Enchantress” is the second bottling of Peirano Estate Vineyards’ new “The Artist Series” and follows the HUGE success of our first bottling - “Illusion”. This wine continues the “new school” and “old school” winemaking styles of father & daughter. The 2019 blend consists of our Petite Sirah, Old Vine Zinfandel, Tempranillo and Syrah. After HAND-PICKING into small bins for the most delicate transporting of the fruit, we keep each varietal separate throughout the entire fermentation and aging process.
When dry, each varietal is pressed and aged in French and American oak barrels, of which 15% is new.
TASTING NOTES: At first glance, you will be mesmerized by the deep, dark crimson color of this full bodied wine. Inhale the aromas of ripe blueberries, blackberry pie, cassis and cinnamon stick. The mouth feel is rich and full of flavors of ripe blackberries, fresh dark plums, bing cherries and blueberries. Am I crazy or is this like biting into a graham cracker spread with a thick layer of blackberry jam?? I dunno, you decide. The smooth, velvety tannins on the finish will leave you “enchanted” and longing for more after every sip.
Alc. 14.8%, Druer: Petite Sirah, Zinfandel, Tempranillo, Syrah fra Lodi området. Fadlagret: 15 Months in French and American Oak Barrels.
