Product Overview
Winery's Notes:
"The 2022 Cinsaut is enticingly bright, juicy, & fruit forward, with a soft thread of acidity running throughout, making it the perfect sipper for a hot day. Aromas of jasmine, pomegranate, & ripe raspberry burst from the glass, while more subtle notes of Madagascan vanilla, dried bay leaf, & nutmeg add depth & draw you in. The palate is loaded with notes of fresh blood orange & dried strawberry, leading to a long finish doused with lemon thyme & a swathe of super soft, velvety tannins that keep you coming back for more. This delicate red is soft, elegant, & effortlessly delicious. Drink now through 2028."

93 Points - Wine Enthusiast:
"This wine is fresh, lively, with aromas of strawberry-rhubarb, dried basil, toasty vanilla, and dried flowers on the nose. The flavors on the palate are Bing cherry, watermelon, cranberry, simmering spices, White grapfruit zest, and a juicy long finish. Chill and Pair with Grilled Meats." -TP, 12/31/2024
