2020 Paris Valley Road Le Rendez-Vous
Cabernet and syrah rendezvous to paint the town red. Crushed raspberries, figs, and red currants lead the way. Boysenberries, pomegranates, and cranberries promptly emerge. Framed by fine-grained tannins and soothing acidity, black pepper, cigar box, and eucalyptus notes tug at the back palate. Like a French film classic de rigueur, the profile begins with a bit of mystery, reaches a resounding crescendo, then finishes with a multitude of complexity.

Winemaker Notes
The best part about making a blend is showcasing the characteristics of each varietal involved. The theory behind blending is that you bring the strength of each wine to the table, combining its best qualities to create something unique and more robust than the individual components. Le Rendez-Vous brings a beautiful and unique combination as it’s Cabernet dominant but includes the stunning complexity of Syrah. This blend spent 18 months barreled in 60% French oak.
