2021 Slam Dunk Red Blend California

Winemaker Notes: Pure sun-ripened lusciousness, Slam Dunk showcases all the power and structure California has to offer. This lush, mega-hit blend knows how to turn up the volume; full of bramble, violets, and blackberry pie, the mouthfeel is packed with sweet black cherry, and dark chocolate. The juicy mid-palate reveals flavors of raspberry and toasted vanilla with ripe tannins and opulent finish. This mountain of flavor is designed to accentuate every “slam dunk” moment.

Varietals: 55% Petite Sirah, 45% Zinfandel

CRITICAL ACCLAIM


Tasting Panel - "Bramble, plum, and sweet tobacco reveal themselves within the seamless mouth- feel of this high-toned yet earthy red, returning for its second vintage. Following a clean path of fine acidity, the finish of rose and wild strawberry is memorable."


Jeb Dunnuck - "The 2021 Red Blend checks in as 58% Petite Sirah and 42% Zinfandel that spent 11 months in larger oak. It s a juicy, strawberry, sandalwood, and spicy red that s medium to full-bodied, soft, up-front, and delicious. It would be one hell of a house red."
