2016 La Fraternite

64% Grenache, 27% Mourvèdre, 9% Syrah
Upland, Boushey and Sugarloaf Vineyards
91 Points (Wine Enthusiast)
La Fraternité pronounces bright red fruit from the moment you pull the cork. This Grenache, Mourvèdre, and Syrah blend is a lively wine with layered aromas and flavors of strawberries, raspberries, kirsch, violets, and spice. On the palate, these flavors wrap around a silky medium body with a smooth, fresh and lingering finish. This wine pairs nicely with roasted chicken, grilled pork, Ahi tuna and salmon dishes.
