Carmelo Patti Gran Assemblage 2015 750 ML

A blend of Cabernet, Malbec, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc, Carmelo’s “Gran Assemblage” reminds us very much of a rustic, “old school” Bordeaux with earthy fruit, leafy undertones, and soft restraint. This small bottling is an assemblage of the finest blocks of Carmelo’s Perdriel vineyard. All grapes are co-fermented together, using native yeast. Generally held at the winery five years or more before release.
