2015 Touriga

Wreckless Blenders, 2015 Touriga

It’s BACK! This grape from the Iberian Peninsula was a huge hit In its first 2013 release. This wine provides a counterpoint to the Wreckless selections where folks have discovered earthy, sagey, mushroomy, and tea flavors. Great dark color and tannins gives this wine flexibility as enjoyable alone or with hearty meals.

Blend and Vineyard

Shaker Ridge Vineyard El Dorado, 5% Merlot, 5% Sangiovese.

 

2015 Barbera

Shaker Ridge Vineyard El Dorado County, 10% Merlot.

Elizabeth and Andy’s grapes are showing incredible consistency year in and year out. Loaded with crisp cherry flavors, the shot of Merlot provides a background canvas of elegant tannins. Another wine to enjoy with a range of dishes from pasta to scaloppini but also enjoyed sipping in the cool Delta Breeze.

2015 Sangiovese

Wreckless Blenders, 2015 Sangiovese

Bob Gibson Vineyard, Mendocino County, 5% Merlot

Long standing club members are well aware of the quality wine produced from Bob’s grapes as this wine sells out very quickly! The depth of flavors in this wine were so tantalizing that the WBs agreed to only a minimal blend of Merlot just to provide a more lasting finish. Pasta, Pasta, more Pasta!

2014 Cabernet Franc

Wreckless Blenders, 2014 Cabernet Franc

As best said on the label – like Lady Godiva, this wine evokes unity, determination, and refinement. Rich in California sunshine, with deep fruit, amazing flavors and lap-dog enthusiasm, we say that you pop this cork and drink in the elegance.

Blend and Vineyard

95 % Cabernet Franc, El Dorado County, 5% Petite Sirah
