Tasting Notes

This wine is full bodied with deep color and moderate acidity, and it is inherently balanced and surprisingly complex for a wine without new oak. Charbono is easy and approachable but has layers of earthy tannin and generous flavors of wild raspberry, black plum, and bay laurel.

Food Pairing

Try paired with grilled meats like venison, pork tenderloin or burgers.

Tech Details

Harvested from vineyards planted in the 1980's in Calistoga. The wine is aged for 10 months in neutral oak barrels.
