Two Shepherds
Trimble Vineyard Carignan
Mendocino, North Coast, California, USA
The ‘16 hits a sweet spot with me. 100% whole clusters adds real depth to this Carignan. Add a slight chill to this 13% alc. wine and the flavors pop! Black cherry, blackberry, and black tea with a super svelte tannin that fits seamlessly.

Aromatics are wonderfully evocative—black brambly fruit, leaf piles, wet asphalt on a foggy, drizzly fall morning while your neighbor has the smoker going. Cranberry and tea notes. Fine, but hefty tannins that settle on the center of the tongue and hang for a while, cashmerelike. Could do worse for a midday tipple.
