Wine Focus: “A Touch of Gray Rock”

As we enter the fall, we wanted to share a brand new El Dorado County red wine blend we released for the first time this year.  A Touch of Gray Rock is comprised of 46% Sangiovese (the Queen of Tuscany…think Chianti), 46% Zinfandel, and 8% Estate Primitivo,.  The Sangiovese and Zinfandel come from an organic vineyard and orchard in the Apple Hill/Camino area, just 35 minutes away.  Grown in the volcanic soils of this region, the Sangiovese brings brite red fruit notes of cherry and strawberry laced in dried roses, while the Zinfandel adds beautiful purple notes of wild berries and bright Santa Rosa plum.  We added just a “touch” of our granite soil grown Estate Primitivo to give this wine a little more depth of character as well as ever-so-slight tannin structure, which make this latest release a great casual sipper, that also holds up to a variety of foods from red or white meats to fall salads. We are super stoked about this new release and think you will be to.  A Touch of Gray Rock is available to taste now at our tasting room or can be ordered here from our online store. Salute!
