2019 Monte Rosso Vineyard Mountain Red
Our 2019 Monte Rosso Vineyard Mountain Red is a tribute to the great varieties of Southern France. Syrah and Grenache come together with a touch of Zinfandel from our legendary Monte Rosso Vineyard. Aromas of blackberry, violet and blonde roast coffee emerge from the glass while strawberry purée and white pepper fill the midpalate. The tannins impart structure to the blend, pulling a luscious density through to the finish.

The Wine Advocate, May 31, 2022
A Rhône-style blend off Monte Rosso, the 2019 Mountain Red Monte Rosso Vineyard is a blend of 68% Syrah, 30% Grenache and 2% Zinfandel, aged 20 months in French oak (77% new). The result is gently smoky, herbal and peppery, with primary fruit notes of cherries and red plums. Full-bodied and supple but nicely concentrated, this effort finishes long and silky, with hints of dark chocolate and espresso.
