Winemaker Notes: Mountain-grown in the Sierra Foothills, this Tempranillo delivers rich notes of dark cherry, plum, and blackberry with hints of leather, cocoa, and warm spice. Structured yet smooth, with balanced acidity and a long, savory finish, it’s a bold but polished expression of this classic varietal.
Vineyard Notes: The Kautz Family grows these grapes on their family vineyard in Calaveras County. The vineyards are located 2400 ft. above sea level where warm days are cooled by the evening mountain air. This area’s unique soil of decomposed granite mixed with volcanic sediment and red clay produce a wonderful mineral component
Serving Suggestions: Cured meats, such as prosciutto, coppa colla and dry chorizo are fantastic pairings. Also, try baked brie and blue cheese.
