Llano Sweet Red

Description

Distinctive mineral notes reflecting terroir and aroma of ripe peach define the character of this Grand Cru; fine hints of citrus provide pleasant tension; crisp but subtle acidity

Winemaker Notes

Llano Estacado Sweet Red is a festive wine made from several grape varieties including Syrah, Merlot, and Cabernet Sauvignon. This deliciously fruity red wine displays an alluring blackberry flavor, with soft, round tannins that provide a rich mouth texture with just a hint of mint in the finish. Llano Sweet Red can be enjoyed either chilled or at room temperature. It's fresh & fruity character requires no bottle aging.
