2023 Red Table Wine
Inspired by the bold, mineral-rich reds of Priorat, Spain, this distinctive 2023 blend reflects both Old World heritage and California spirit. Crafted with 62% Carignane, 25% Mourvèdre, 8% Syrah, and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon, it offers a savory, layered profile that nods to Priorat’s legendary Grenache & Carignan powerhouses while showcasing its own sense of place. Fermented in stainless steel tanks using specialized yeast for optimal extraction of color, tannin, flavors and textures. The wines are racked only once for blending in the Spring folowing the initial harvest and then again to tank for bottling the folowing year.
On the nose, aromas of black plum, wild herbs, and graphite evoke the intense purity found in classic Priorat wines like those from Clos Mogador and Alvaro Palacios, where slate and limestone uplift the fruit. The palate builds with brambly berry, crushed black cherry, earthy minerality, and a hint of smoked spice—rich yet finely balanced—with firm, polished tannins reminiscent of the region’s signature structure.
A touch of Mourvèdre brings savory depth and subtle gaminess, while Syrah adds spice and dark fruit intensity, and Cabernet Sauvignon contributes structure and finesse. The result is a wine of layered complexity, resonant with Priorat’s bold character but grounded in Paso Robles’s diversity—a red that pairs beautifuly with roasted meats, rich stews, and dishes with Mediterranean herbs.
