An intriguing, inviting blend of red summer fruits, spring fynbos flowers, Indian spice & just a hint of toasty oak on the nose. The palate is surprisingly decadent, rich, with almost creamy tannins. Youll find raspberries, blackberries, ripe plum & a hint of pepper, spice & leather on the palate. It is balanced, with just the tiniest prod of refreshing, salty acid, like a playful poke of Neptunes trident. ...

Welcome to complex, ripe aromas of citrus & peach, backed up by the faintest sprinkling of fresh thyme & vanilla. The aromas introduce a palate altogether more complex, with rich, more-ish, juicy stone fruit, wrapped up in crunchy, refreshing, grapey acidity. Mouth-filling, delicious & succulent. ...

A blend of grenache, syrah, & mourvedre with just a soupcon of cinsault makes for a bright & wonderfully gamey wine. The chief red in residence, grenache, derives primarily from their traditional Biodynamic grenache source from Alta Loma Vineyard in Monterey County. This is supplemented with a smidge of estate grenache, adding a discreet spiciness to the attraction. The syrah is principally sourced from Bien Nacido Vineyard in Santa Maria Valley, which produces the closest analogue found to a Northern Rhine syrah
- tannic & meaty in the lower registers; peppery, fruitful, & delicately floral in the top, all the while showing great balance & harmony. A group of non-irrigated, centenarian Contra Costa vineyards has provided mourvedre for Cigare for many years. Finally, a dollop of cinsault provides a very particular fragrance of flowers & aromatic herb. Limited stock.

The second vintage of dry Rose captures the spirit of the first release. Once again Bonterra have used a market basket of varietals to contribute surprising complexity to this beautiful Salmon-coloured wine, focusing in particular on Sangiovese, Zinfandel & Syrah from the Indian Creek vineyard in the Sierra Foothills of Amador County, where they source Syrah as a blender for many of their wines. The knock-your-socks off colour is just the beginning. Chilled a bit, the wine reveals aromas & flavours of strawberry, tart cherry, fragrant tea, luscious raspberries, some watermelon, a touch of spice & vanilla in a lingering, unexpectedly joyful finish. Bonterra are serious about making a serious Rose, & they hope that the word will be spread to the world that real wine lovers drink Pink. Grape: Sangiovese 54%, Zinfandel 24%, Grenache 22%. ...
