2015 Le Artishasic Old Vine Carignan Redwood Valley

Carignan is a unique red grape variety of Spanish origin that is more commonly found in French wine, but is widely planted throughout the western Mediterranean, and around the globe. This late ripening variety develops silky tannins, bright acidity, and a long complex finish. Aromatics of violet, rose petal, and baking spices, complement a palate of cranberry, black cherry, and licorice.
