Sosie Bear & Rooster Red Blend 2018

The 2018 Sosie "Bear & Rooster" Red Blend is a highly-regarded, small-production Napa Valley red wine crafted in an Old World style. The name "Sosie" (French for "twin" or "spitting image") represents the winery's goal to make California-grown wines that mirror the restraint, acid, and structure of classic French wines. The "Bear & Rooster" logo symbolizes this marriage, pairing the California Golden Bear with the French Coq (rooster).

Tasting Notes

• • Aroma: A complex and intense bouquet featuring dark fruits, cedar wood, anise, espresso grounds, crushed violets, and subtle herbal notes like sage.
  • Palate: Rich, layered, and structured without being overly heavy. It leads with flavors of cassis, black cherry, blueberry, and dried figs, balanced by cocoa and a hint of jalapeño pepper spice.
  • Finish: Smooth, silky texture with refined, savory tannins and a long, balanced, food-friendly finish.
