Lagrein

2008 Paso Robles Lagrein

The Garnet Sun Winery Lagrein from the 2008 vintage is a captivating red wine that showcases the unique characteristics of this lesser-known varietal. Originating from the sun-drenched Paso Robles region, this wine displays a medium-bodied profile that offers a delightful balance between richness and drinkability. The acidity is bright and lively, enhancing the wine's freshness while complementing its expressive fruit characteristics. Expect prominent notes of dark cherries and blackberries, with hints of spice that lend complexity to the palate. The tannins are notable yet soft, creating a seamless structure that invites sipping and savoring. This Lagrein is crafted to be food-friendly, making it an excellent choice for a wide variety of dishes. Its well-rounded nature ensures a pleasing experience, whether enjoyed on its own or paired with a delicious meal.

California's Central Coast might be a bit quieter than Napa or Sonoma to the north, but this lesser-known region produces many world-class wines. Enjoying incredible terroir along its vast 280-mile stretch—from San Francisco Bay to Santa Barbara—Central Coast wines are increasingly in demand. Its position between the Pacific Coast Ranges and the Southern Coast Ranges is key to its quality, with many cool-climate AVAs offering elegant Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Syrah and Merlot. In the hotter parts of the Central Coast, away from the coastal fogs and cold mountain slopes, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Syrah, Grenache and Mourvèdre are exceptional.
