Protest Red Blend

Protest Profile:
A brand new red wine blend aged first in French oak with a second aging in Rye Whiskey barrels. Protest combines Syrah with a bold mix of other red wines representing each region within Sonoma County.

Varietals:
57% Syrah, 30% Zinfandel, 13% Cabernet Sauvignon

Tasting notes:
The Rye Whiskey aromas are uniquely subtle and meld well with the silky, dense Syrah fruit. Hints of cigar box and fresh leaf tobacco emerge with each sip. These intense, dusty black fruit flavors intermingle warmly with the Rye Whiskey flavors. It tastes like a sumptuous wine, but one transformed into a different animal by the Rye Whiskey aromas and tastes. There are more delicious chewy, bacon fat tones with deep blackberry and black raspberry jam highlights.
