Carlisle is one of several winemakers who make wine from this heritage vineyard. Zin yes but in classic field blends from the late 1800’s, this one also includes some Alicante Bouchet, Caignane and Petite Sirah. The results are magnificent. Decanted two hours before dinner and it still opened up over the next couple of hours. My hats are off to Carlisle for making such wonderful wine with such precious resources. A proper Father’s Day celebration! Wow!
