Tasting notes
The 2017 Red Wine Casa Nuestra has really come together nicely. Deep and fleshy in the glass with terrific structure, the 2017 has so much to offer. The natural diversity of this Zinfandel- and Petite Sirah-based field blend comes through loud and clear.

The 2017 Casa Nuestra is a field blend of Petite Syrah, Zinfandel, Alicante Bouschet, Carignane, Gamay, Negrette, Mourvèdre, Refosco and Chenin Blanc. Very deep purple-black in the glass, it has a savory nose of smoke and cinnamon toast with black cherry liqueur, dried violets, smoked meats and pink peppercorn/exotic spices suggestions. The palate is full-bodied with very dense black fruits at the core, plus notions of blue fruits and flowers. It's framed by very firm, slightly grippy tannins and just enough acidity to carry the long, savory finish. 600 cases produced.
The 2017 Red Wine Casa Nuestra is pliant, supple and inviting, with lovely fruit presence and impeccable balance. Soft and open-knit, the 2017 will drink well with minimal cellaring.
