"Greetings and Salutations", our 2016 Fortified Barbera, is coming back to the menu for the holidays! Join us for the release of our 6-year barrel-aged Fortified Barbera on Saturday, November 19th.
Greetings and Salutations is unlike anything we have ever produced. In 2016, some of the Barbera that we had intended to use in our best-selling wine Liquid Assets came in with high ABV after fermentation. After much deliberation, Craig decided to fortify this portion of Barbera, taking the ABV even higher to a staggering 19.6% and 5.45% residual sugar.
Greetings and Salutations has now aged 72 months in barrel, making this our longest barrel aging EVER. This additional barrel time has created immense complexity, accentuating the Medjool date and nutty characteristics that made the wine a hit in its earlier renditions.
These bottles will only be available for purchase by members of our Wine Club. Though members of the public will be allowed to try the fortified Barbera, only members of the Wine Club will have the opportunity to buy. Only 37 cases of these 375ml bottles were produced.
