Sierra Foothills meets Cote du Rhône in this salacious Terre Rouge Tête-à-Tête bottle, at first whiff leather and spice followed by bold dark fruits, blackberry preserves, and nice oak on the palate. Typical medium-bodied blend, with lovely baking spices, and smoky, mouth-filling complex umami flavors. Tête-à-Tête means to sit face to face and have a private conversation...The husband and wife duo clearly knew what was intended for this bottle. They continue to make wines that are balanced, elegant, and complex. Bill is known for being an original Rhône Ranger and pioneered the Rhône varietals grown in rugged Sierra Foothills. Visit their winery and Jane will curate something delicious that pairs perfectly with a glass. This is a bottle you can curl up with and enjoy!
