Idlewild “The Bird” Red

In Italy, the house wine is often light, fresh, and firmly structured so as to pair beautifully next to a wide range of foods, and that is the inspiration for this blend. This wine is at once the deepest and most savory while also being the lightest and freshest rendition of this blend yet. Dark cherry, iron and sanguine notes, dried herbs, violets, and graphite are highlights of the aromas. The mouth feel is a joyful interplay of brightness with chewy bass notes before the seriousness kicks in with a firm acid and tannin balance on the finish. The blend is comprised of roughly 53% Dolcetto, 44% Barbera, and 3% Nebbiolo.
