Casino Mine Ranch Marcel 2016 (750ml)

Casino Mine Ranch is an estate vineyard located in the Sierra Foothills of Amador County. The winery - a century old ranch that was once mined for gold — is owned and managed by fourth-generation California brothers, Jim and Rich Merryman

The 2016 Marcel checks in as 80% Tempranillo and 20% Teroldgo (this is an Italian red grape grown mostly in the northeastern part of Trentino-Alto Adige) that saw a long maceration and 18 months in new barrels. It offers a ripe, rustic, yet charming and mouthfilling style as well as notes of Bing cherries, melted licorice, and toasted spice. It’s another high-quality, incredibly satisfying wine from this estate to enjoy over the coming 5-6 years or so.
