Product Description
RP 98 "This is the second edition of this single-vineyard cuvee from The Third Twin estate in Los Alamos, as a follow-up to last year?s "Nuestra Senora Del Tercer Gemelo," but this time the core of the blend is Grenache as opposed to Mourv?dre. Due to a possible trademark dispute, this wine may get a name change prior to release, potentially to be called, ?The Other Lady.? The small proportion of Viognier in this blend was co-fermented with red grapes, but interestingly, because it ripens earlier than the reds, the white berries were frozen and added to the reds at the time of fermentation. As an added bonus, these frozen grapes help to cool and, therefore, slow the fermentation. This wine was recently bottled, on May 22, 2020, after spending 32 months in French oak, 12% new.
