GUINIGI

Skylark 2019 Red Belly Red Blend, Mendocino County, California ($25)

A blend of Syrah, Carignane, and Grenache, the wine opens with red berry fruit and warming spice, accented by elegant cedarwood aromatics. Medium-bodied, it shows chalky tannins that build with measured intensity, carrying through a fruit-driven finish dusted with herbs and paprika spice. A touch of florality from the Syrah adds lift, while the Carignane contributes bright acidity and structural tension.
