Wine information

Gros Ventre's welcoming High Country Red delivers a lifted nose and crunchiness to the palate. It offers aromas of pomegranate, cherry, violets and sweet spice. The Gamay brings supple and generous, red fruit flavours lively acidity. A wonderful example of this style of wine, rarely seen outside of Burgundy.

Robin says "High Country Red is actually a blend that the Burgundians call "Passe-Tout-Grains". It is a traditional blend of Pinot Noir and Gamay and Chris Pittenger think they might be the only ones in California who produce it. Really delicious and oh so easy to drink."
