Talmage Pija Blend 2006
Mendocino Ridge, Mendocino County, California, United StatesThe Talmage Pija Blend 2006 takes its character from the practice of many old Italian vintners who planted several varietals in one vineyard block except in this case Brown blends grapes from different vineyards. It's been termed a sophisticated peasant wine but at $36 I think you will be impressed with spice and wild black fruit flavours that finish with bits of coffee, chocolate and vanilla. Try with grilled meats.Tasted: 22 March 2009Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $36.00 | 750ml | speculative listing - Charton-Hobbs |
