On Sale

POST & VINE Old Vine Field Blend, Mendocino

WHY WE LOVE IT:

  • Zinfandel (34%), Carignane (32%), Petite Sirah (30%) and Grenache (4%)*
  • Grapes from old vines, sustainably farmed Testa Vineyards
  • Miss Wineburg is a 100 point winemaker
  • Consistent Gold Medal winner

 WINEMAKER: Rebekah Wineburg: Quintessa, Rudd Estate, Bucella

WHAT WE TASTED: An elegant wine that expresses the very best of the Testa Vineyard. Soft and supple, spicy and ripe, the wine opens with bright fruit notes of fresh cherry, blackberry and tart cranberry followed by accents of cinnamon and clove. Dark and rich with supple tannins and juicy fruit on the palate leading up to a long finish. A true field blend, so the grape percentages change every year.

AVA DESIGNATED: Mendocino

WHAT WE PAIRED:

  • Smoked Aged Gouda and bacon burgers
  • Carnitas street tacos with stuffed chili relleno
  • BBQ Flank steak, Chimichurri sauce

Testa Vineyards is on its 5th generation working that soil!
