"Another great buy is the Cotes du Rhone-like blend, the 2010 Cashmere Proprietary Red, a 20,000 case blend of Mourvedre, Syrah and Grenache aged for 9 months (one quarter in oak barrels). A dark ruby color is accompanied by abundant notes of kirsch, lavender and pepper as well as a hint of licorice. This surprisingly complex, medium-bodied, fruit-dominated red offers both power and elegance, and should be compatible with a number of dishes." - Parker

Wine maker notes

We initially created this blend as an auction lot for the Hospice du Rhone held in Paso Robles each year. Cashmere is a very flavorful, smooth wine offering big cherry, raspberry and chocolate notes with hints of cracked black pepper and plum.
