NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This full-bodied red blend from Niner Winery is a beautiful wine.The nose is filled with bright and ripe cherry, blackberry, and raspberry aromas followed by subtle hints of tobacco and cocoa. On the palate, this wine is bursting with juicy flavors of ripe red fruit, licorice, and hints of dark chocolate. The tannins are balanced and smooth, leading to a long and lingering finish. Enjoy this wine with a hearty beef stew or a grilled cheese sandwich.

ORIGINS
Winery: Niner
Region: Central Coast California
The Central Coast of California is a wine lover's paradise, boasting a wide variety of climates, soils, and grape varieties. Located between San Francisco and Los Angeles, the Central Coast spans from Monterey County in the north to Santa Barbara County in the south. With its diverse topography and Mediterranean climate, the Central Coast is home to some of the most renowned wineries in the United States.
The Central Coast has a long and storied history of winemaking, dating back to the mid-1800s. The first vineyards were planted in the Santa Clara Valley, and by the late 1800s, the region was producing some of the finest wines in the country. The region's reputation for quality wines was further solidified in the early 1989, when the Santa Clara Valley was declared among the first American Viticultural Area (AVA) in the United States.CUSTOMER RATING
