About wine:
The ruby-colored wine comes from various areas of Sonoma County, including Dry Creek Valley, Alexander Valley, Sonoma Valley, and Chalk Hill.
-
Harvest and ageing:
After the harvest, the grapes are kept cool for three days, then fermented for 10–15 days at relatively high temperatures in stainless steel tanks. The wine is then aged for 18 months in American and Hungarian oak barrels.

Suitable for food pairing
A dry red cuvée (87% Merlot, 13% Cabernet Sauvignon) from Sonoma County, California, pairs beautifully with grilled beef steak, roast lamb, or braised beef ragù. It also complements hard cheeses such as Cheddar or Gouda, as well as vegetable dishes like roasted vegetables or tomato pasta. Thanks to its balanced structure and complex flavors, it’s also an ideal match for spicy dishes or game.
