Onward Wines 2022 Bouquet Rouge, Sunset Blend, North Coast - 1 Bottle

This is a blend of carbonic Zinfandel from Hill Vineyard and Carignane from Hawkeye Ranch, both in Mendocino, with a winemakers splash of Malvasia Bianca, from Capp Inn Ranch Vineyard site.

As a winemaker I often create to showcase vineyard site or vintage expression, yet sometimes, such as this, I create out of an inspiration for something I want to taste in the glass.  This wine is meant to be light on its feet, a summer red.

Having both depth and layers from the blend of carbonic Zinfandel and heritage vine Carignane and a unique twist of freshness and vibrancy from the added Malvasia Bianca…drum roll please, our Bouquet Rouge, Sunset blend was born.

Onward Wines are single-vineyard, site-driven wines from vineyard sites that are very special to me. I am a true believer in personal connection and there is a story behind each vineyard site and how it came to be part of my portfolio. In these stories, you will learn more about the people behind these vineyards. I liken my connection to these vineyards to that of one’s favorite shirt or coffee mug or chair. Like a well-worn fabric or a slightly chipped mug that may have initially caught my eye for its beauty, but over the years has won my heart because it just feels right. When it comes to vineyards this happens too, because of a combination of my connection with the vines themselves and my connection with those that tend them. For me, the grower's hands are most definitely part of the terroir.

My style is about letting the vines speak. They are the art, I am the canvas, and my job is to give them a chance to share their beauty in each and every vintage. My decisions are driven by the vineyard and the vintage, my cellar practices are to uphold the truths I find in the vineyard. To this end, I pick early looking for a balance of flavors at lower ripeness, as I find this is when each vineyard is in its most unique expression of self.
