++SOLD OUT++ |
The Mission Grape dates back to the 16th Century in California, when the Spanish
padres brought cuttings along to plant around their missions. It is a pink/red thin
skinned grape with large, loose clusters. The grapes for this “Port- styled” wine come
from vines planted at the original Rancho Tepusquet in Northern Santa Barbara
County during the 1950’s. The fermentation was arrested with 170 proof grape
brandy, leaving a residual sugar at 7% and 17.7% alcohol. This is a petite, delicate
dessert wine to pair with summer red fruits and/or milk chocolate.
Winemaker's Notes:
A delicious, delicate dessert wine, light bodied(not clingy) and full of raspberry
liqueur(framboise) and milk chocolate. This may even be a good summertime aperitif, poured over crushed ice. Also a great cigar wine.
