2021 Giguiere Estate 'Pillars of Hercules' Red Blend Dunnigan Hills

Winemaker Notes:  This unique blend of three Estate Grown reds shows off its robust pedigree in the deep, dark purple color. The aromatics are a beautiful mix of violets, dense black fruit, and chocolate. Juicy flavors of blueberry, boysenberry and blackberry jam are a nice counterpoint to the toasty oak and racy black pepper notes. The texture is full and viscous and hangs around for a long finish.

This bold red blend has enough balance and complexity to enjoy on its own as an aperitif. It is also a great choice to pair with baby back ribs, slow-roasted lamb shanks, or grilled veggies tossed with a rich romesco sauce.

Blend: Petite Sirah, Petit Verdot, Teroldego

CRITICAL ACCLAIM


Wilfred Wong - "The 2021 Giguiere Estate Pillars of Hercules Red Blend is well-built and solid on the palate. This wine shows aromas and flavors of ripe berries. Enjoy it with grilled baby back ribs."
