20% OFF - Mix & Match Any 6 Bottles and Growlers
It’s back, and in its third iteration. Still a collaboration with William Chris Vineyards, the 2018 Ocotillo while still young, is going to impress for many years to come. Ocotillo for us has always been the big brother Sangiovese blend to the Lot 83 - think Super Tuscan compared to a Chianti. The Sangiovese which makes up 50% of the blend is sourced from a new vineyard for us (Phillips Vineyard), that’s showing incredible promise. Planted in 2015 and on it’s own roots, this Sangiovese is dense, dark and structured. The Merlot from Paka Vineyard was planted in 2014 and adds softness and a deep and concentrated fruity core to the blend.
