winemaker's notes:
Varieties In Blend: 36% Sangiovese, 25% Barbera, 12% Zinfandel, 11% Carignane, 5% Mourvedre. Less than 5%: Viognier, Petite Verdot, Nebbiolo, Freisa, Aglianico, Cabernet Franc, Charbono, Chenin Blanc, Cinsault, Grenache.
The Big House wines were born of notion that the California
climate is quite hospitable to the rollicking, sun loving grapes of Mediterranean
France, Italy and Spain. By blending, rather than relying upon
a single variety, Big House has created a complex, rich wine that elegantly
matches a very wide variety of cuisine, from a large stack of pizzas, to BBQ ribs
to roast chicken.
The Big House Pink delivers a tremendous nose of a mixed red fruits,
watermelon, cranberry, guava, raspberry and peach. Racy aromas and flavors
of spicy cherry and vanilla.
