Country: US / L’Attitude 39
Variety: Rhône-style Red Blend California
Winery: Fife / Mendocino
L’Attitude needs a warm vintage to succeed, and it got one in ’04. The wine, a blend of Carignane, Syrah and other Rhône reds, is dry and complicated, offering rich, earthy, Provençal herb flavors with fruitier tastes of cherries, blackberries and cola. Notable for balance, elegance and power. Drink now through 2010.
