Made very much in the style of Bandol by Bastien Leduc, this wine is big on food friendly acidity and shows vibrant cherry and pomegranate balanced by notes of tar and dry earth. A rich texture and a long finish that brings a white pepper note forward complete the package. The tasting room is on the front of Thomas Hill Organics just off the square in downtown Paso Robles — treat yourself to a tasting, select a favorite and have lunch all in one spot. Genius!
