Faustino I
A mature beauty — aromas of dried cherry and rose petals, flavors of dark berries and tobacco, ripe tannins and a long, inviting finish. A seamless package.
It will go well with just about anything, but lamb would be best — a roast or chops. If we were in Rioja, those baby chops would be grilled over vine cuttings and would be just the thing to show off the nuances of this great Rioja.
What it goes with: Lamb, Manchego cheese
Maison L' Envoye Pinot Noir
Focused, featuring lively blackberry, floral and white pepper flavors that unfurl in layers, persisting with finesse against an underlying mineral note as the finish revs up. Complex and expressive.
