What to Expect

Carignane is a workhorse grape of France and Spain, its ancestral home, where it goes by Cariñena. It is getting renewed interest for its intense color, acid and tannins that it can add to a blend. It has been successful as a Rosé and is occasionally bottled on its own but it remains primarily a blending wine.

Spirits

Sourced from organic, biodynamic and transitional vineyards, this Carignane from winemaker Steven Cantor is full of focus and vigor. Plush blueberry and blackberry flavors are followed up by dusty cocoa tannins. Most Carignane comes from the south of France and Spain; this is a truly exceptional wine coming from California.
