ORIN SWIFT EIGHT YEARS IN THE

ORIN SWIFT EIGHT YEARS IN THE is a bold red blend hailing from California's renowned vineyards. The 2023 Eight Years in the Desert pours a dark mauve core with a red amethyst rim and aromatic notes of ripe blackberry and raspberry bramble. Further hints of chocolate covered espresso bean, black pepper and allspice emanate from the glass. The entry is dominated by black plum preserves and freshly baked mixed berry morning bun with an energetic yet concentrated mid-palate. Soft and textured tannins give way to a lifted finish with a touch of pluot and dried tarragon.

This wine pairs well with grilled meats, hearty pasta dishes, and aged cheeses. For optimal enjoyment, serve slightly below room temperature and allow it to breathe for about 30 minutes after opening to enhance its rich flavors.
