McManis 2013 North Forty Red (California)

Country: US / North Forty
Variety: Red Blend California
Winery: McManis / California

Deep, dark, oaky and tannic, this wine opens with powerful aromas of charred barrels and wood smoke. Juicy flavors of blackberry and black cherry follow, with plenty of fine-textured tannins and a lingering finish. It’s made from an unusual blend of Petite Verdot and Tannat grapes.
