2017 Mendocino Charbono

Truly a mysterious heirloom variety, Charbono hails from the Savoie region of the French Alps where it is nearly extinct. In France, it is known as Douce Noir (Soft Black) and Corbeau Noir (Black Raven) because of its dark color.
About

"Aromas of dark fruit, notably cassis and currants, foreshadow what is a very deep and brooding wine. On the palate, blue fruits are complemented by rich blackberries and hints of savory spices, like clove and allspice. The dense, brooding black fruit aromas and flavors, along with soft tannins, pair well with wild game, sharp cheeses and roasted meats." -Randle Johnson, Winemaker
