Vintage Notes

Quite aromatic with intriguing black pepper, brown sugar, earth and oak-spice notes.  Vibrant acidity lends buoyancy to the bright, youthful, pie cherry, plum and orange fruit.  Pair this Malbec with dishes that demand a youthful, racy, full-bodied red wine.

2009 Rose

2009 Reserve

Rose of Sangiovese

A dry Sangiovese Rose tour de force!  Boasts a range of complex flavors built around racy strawberry and tart orange with hints of melon rind and peach.  Impresses because of its perfect balance between rich, concentrated flavors and mouthwatering acidity.  Very food friendly, but also well suited for hot summer day sipping by the pool or on the deck.  In the last five years, our Roses have garnered four best of class, one best of show and several gold awards at top wine competitions in the United States and Canada.  Taste for yourself why each new vintage of Barnard Griffin Rose is awaited with such anticipation!

Offers embracing aromas of vanilla, mocha and clove with menthol and leather accents.  The dense, well-concentrated character  boasts an exotic core of high-toned pomegranate, candied orange peel and subtle sassafras flavors.  Be creative in your food pairings with this impressive, young red.  Spicy Greek cuisine anyone?
