Brassfield Estate Winery
Volcano Ridge Red Rhone Blend
High Valley, North Coast, California, USA
Dark purple in color with a short reddish rim.
Strong and fruity nose of blackberries, black currants, black plums, cooked cherries, cedar, black pepper, vanilla, licorice, light spices and milk chocolates.
Full-bodied with medium acidity and long legs.
Dry and very fruity on the palate with black currants, plums, cooked cherries, spices, cedar, licorice, cola, chocolates, tobacco and light herbs.
Long finish with round tannins and tangy cherries.
This 5 year old California red blend is drinking very nicely now.
Rich and extracted. Fruit forward and complex. Nicely balanced with a nice mouthfeel.
This Single Vineyard is soft and buttery. Spicy and bold. Tangy and very entertaining. The high alcohol is somewhat showing.
Good right out of the bottle, and better after 45 minutes of airtime.
Good by itself, and will also pair nicely with a big piece of steak.
A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Malbec, Petite Sirah, Mourvedre, Grenache and Zinfandel. Aged for 10 months in French and American Oak barrels.
14.9% alcohol by volume.
