2024 LXV The Spell

Quick tasting note

Bold, savory, brooding. Fresh ground black pepper. Dark dark dark fruit — black currants, blackberries, Damson plum. Hints of pipe tobacco and roasted meat. In an hour opens to hints of garnet cranberries and Thanksgiving spices.
Detailed tasting notes

Color Deep ruby with inky purple edges

Palate Super broad, textured palate — smooth yet weighty, like a weighted comfort blanket during a thunderstorm. Rare grilled duck through caribou and elk. A savory wine that will pair with any protein — a game-focused dinner at the Yellowstone Ranch hunting lodge with the Duttons.

Bold, savory, and brooding — a weighted comfort blanket in a thunderstorm.
