Grapevine Sales Team Trip: California
I just got back from California with some of the Grapevine sales team. What a trip! We started out by heading to Point Reyes with Rich Marino from Cartlidge [...]
-
An indicative blend of Tempranillo and Mazuelo, full of strawberry, cherry and prune flavors with notes of chocolate and leather. Followed by soft supple tannis. - This wine offers up an exceptionally fragrant and complex bouquet of wood smoke, pencil lead, exotic spices, incense, lavender, and blackberry. On the palate it displays impressive volume, a smooth texture, layered flavors, and a lengthy, seamless finish. This impressive effort will continue to blossom for several more years and provide much pleasure.
- A profound crimson color with orange rims. Accompanied by notes of animal fur on the nose and petrol, along with sweet dried candies and fruit. Accompanied by a lovely dry mouthfeel.
- Produced from a selection of the best grapes from each of our vineyards, it combines the richness of a Tempranillo and the elegance of a Cabernet Sauvignon with the roundness of a Syrah and a Merlot.
- On the palate this is a cleanly made beer, with a decent balance of hoppy, vegetal character and toasty malt. The finish is quite spicy and has a little bite. A premium beer with a nice hoppy taste and of medium bitterness gives this beer good drinkability and is therefore very popular. A real lager, which satisfies even the most demanding gourmets in Austria, Germany, Switzerland, Sweden, Denmark and Great Britain. - See more at: http://www.aikoimporters.com/products/beer/bohemia-regent-premium-pale-lager#sthash.pWTjZ8tC.dpuf
