2014 Black Station Red Wine (Crew Wine Co) $12

()

Vineyard Notes:  “Due east of Napa, tucked away in northern California’s rolling Dunnigan Hills, is a little town called Zamora. But back in the late 1800’s, folks around here used to call it Black’s Station. At its height, this hub founded by J.J. Black boasted a hotel, two stores, a jail, blacksmith shops and a town hall. Today we grow our grapes just three miles from Zamora. We like to think that they carry with them the character and frontier-style of that old town.”

Winery Tasting Notes:  “A deep dark purple, our 2014 Black’s Station Red Blend packs complex aromas of cocoa and baking spices. A big explosion of blackberry, blueberry and cinnamon flavors leads to a lengthy finish of chocolate, oak and fruit. Youthful and rugged, this Bordeaux blend is robust and aromatic with lots of grit in the finish.”
