Clarissa Vin Rouge 2023
Crafted from our finest estate vineyards, this exceptional red blend showcases the artistry of traditional winemaking with New World innovation.
Dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon, this wine delivers commanding structure and depth, while Estate Merlot adds elegant softness and velvety texture. Malbec provides the finishing touch—enhancing color intensity and contributing subtle spice notes that elevate the entire composition.
Pair with red meat, grilled steaks, lamb, or aged cheeses. Serve at cellar temperature (60-65°F).
On the palate, concentrated dark fruit flavors unfold with layers of complexity—cassis and plum complemented by notes of dark chocolate and warm baking spices.
The wine's robust tannin structure promises excellent aging potential, while the Merlot component ensures approachability in its youth.
This slow, even development allowed the fruit to achieve exceptional flavor concentration while retaining beautiful natural acidity and freshness. This gave us lovely soft, juicy, complex wines with an underlying soft tannin structure as a result of using open-top tanks and a punch-down process for winemaking.
This blend represents our commitment to crafting wines that honor both terroir and tradition. Each varietal was hand-harvested at optimal ripeness and fermented separately before the final blend was carefully composed to achieve perfect balance and harmony. The result - plush, concentrated flavors, deep color, freshness, and strong tannic structure—ideal for long-lived wines.
