Tamayo Red 2008
In Stock
|
Our wonderful Red Blend is drawn from our own estate vineyards in far east Contra Costa County, California. We have taken 7 varietals - Petit Sirah, Syrah, Cabernet Franc, Tinta Cao, Malbec, Alicante Bouschet, and Carmeniere - to create a unique blend that is perfect for everyday enjoyment. This bottling reflects "new world" character with vibrant red fruit and expansive varietal spice aromatics reminiscent of classic Rhone style wines. The palate is full of lush, mouth filling flavors brimming with notes of vanilla and crushed wild herbs. We know you will find this red absolutely delicious! |

"Deep violet color. Rich roasted coffee, toffee, and blackberry-blueberry pie aromas follow through on a smooth, satiny entry to a very fruity medium-to-full body with spicy cherry compote and nut notes. Finished with a rich, tangy mocha and pink peppercorn accented fade with light tannins. A delicious crowd pleasing red that is great value..."
