Caligrafica
California
The 93 Point, Gold medal winning Caligrafica returns to Firstleaf with a new Silver medal stunner
ABOUT THIS WINE:
Caligrafica
Cabernet Sauvignon - Zinfandel
The first release from Caligrafica blew us away and was a runaway success in the club. We couldn’t be more excited to share the second release with you. This opulent wine is a beautiful blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Zinfandel that is perfect for pairing with juicy meats as they come off the grill. With almost all of the grapes coming from Lodi and Sonoma, you can expect incredible flavors. Crisp, dark fruits dance in the glass around hints of herbs, while the tannins are ripe but textured. These tastes come together to offer a food friendly wine that will harmonize perfectly with intensively flavored dishes. Judges love this wine too. It took home a Silver medal at the 2018 Harvest Challenge and the 2019 San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition.

WINE REGION:
California
California is one of the most diverse winegrowing regions in the world. Spanning 850 miles along North America's west coast—and inland across mountains and valleys—California's American Viticultural Areas (AVAs) cover a dizzying array of terroir. The cold, deep waters of the Pacific Ocean play a major role in cooling California's vineyards, sending fog and chilly air up to 100 miles inland. This tempers the daytime heat and allows grapes to ripen slowly but fully. Cooler-climate grape varieties thrive closest to the sea, while further inland, bigger, bolder wines prevail.

TASTING NOTES:
Blackberry

The firm structure can stand up to most meat dishes: BBQ and smoked beef brisket, ribs, and pulled pork. It is opulent, with a high aromatic intensity that will harmonize with flavor-intense dishes such as garlic, spice or herb-infused meats.
