Fore Family Vineyards: Mourvedre, Cobb Mountain Vineyard, Red Hills/Lake County 2015
You know the wine, you loved the Dog.
This wine shows a brooding balance between dark extracted flavors of rich cassis, black plums, and brighter citrus flavors of grapefruit and orange peel. Fine, grippy tannins combined with nice acidity and creamy sweet oak flavors create a wonderfully approachable wine. From our vineyards high atop Cobb Mountain to your table, enjoy!
