2016 Revelación "Revel"

Red blend

Food Pairing: tri-tip with Santa Maria-style rub, ricotta-stuffed pasta shells, grilled burgers

“This compelling blend of Tempranillo, Grenache, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petite Sirah starts off somewhat light on the nose before deep blueberry aromas lead into sweet smoke, loamy earth and caramel-laced coffee aromas. The palate is quite ripe with black-currant fruit as well as a touch of leather.”
– Matt Kettmann, Wine Enthusiast, 90 points

“Deep ruby. Fragrant cherry, dark berry, vanilla and floral pastille qualities on the nose. Rich and pliant on the palate, with a core of juicy acidity providing lift to ripe cassis, blueberry and vanilla flavors. Closes with youthful tannic grip and very good persistence, leaving dark fruit and licorice notes behind.”
– Josh Raynolds, Vinous, 90 points
