Bold, as a Foothills wine should be. A vibrant expression of black, blue and red berry fruit, with fall spice and a zesty acidity that keeps things bright and lingering. It’s got the stuffing for something gamey — a venison steak fits the bill here. A Platinum Award winner at the 2016 Critics Challenge International Wine Competition.
