Old Vine Red Lot #36


Appellation: California
Owner/Winemaker: Chris Bilbro
Released January 1, 2005

Old Vine Red Lot 36 is loaded with spicy, peppery, ripe blackberry fruit and backed by dense, blueberry, earthy Petite Sirah flavors. The higher percentage of Petite Sirah adds a noticeable complexity to the wine. This is a serious wine, as always, yet eminently approachable…it is broad and lush on the palate with a lingering finish. Enjoy over the next 2-3 years.

Color: Dark ruby purple

Aroma: Ripe blackberries and blueberries, black pepper spice, and hints of oak
