Let’s skip past the fact that the grapes grown in the cool climate of Monterey give this Pinot Noir a gorgeous fragrance and vibrant mouthfeel
which softens the profile considerably
so it cannot ripen fully in Rioja Alta and Alavesa
Blackberry preserve and currant syrup fill the senses and pique curiosity

Marietta Red Christo - 750ml Riesling Let’s skip past the factThe 2018 Christo is made up of 60% Syrah, 24% Grenache, 12% Petite Sirah and 4% Viognier. Vibrant ruby purple in color, the nose offers pure scents of crushed red, black and blue berries, tobacco, violets, tar and smoked meats. The palate is full bodied and packed full of perfectly ripe, juicy fruit, with a grainy frame and loads of uplift on the finish. Erin Brooks, Wine Advocate
