Dewey's Wines 'Steel Impulse' 2021 750ml
USA : CALIFORNIA : MENDOCINO & SIERRA FOOTHILLS
ORGANIC : Carignan, Syrah
MED-BODIED, RED PLUM, BLACK RASPBERRY, FLORAL, COLA, BRIGHT, NEUTRAL OAK
75% old-vine Carignan from Poor Ranch in Hopland — a fifth-generation certified-organic vineyard dry-farmed since 1888 on volcanic hillsides — colored up with 25% high-elevation Syrah from Sumu Kaw in El Dorado County at 3,000 feet. Charlie Miller treats the Carignan as a dark rosé: destemmed, foot-tread, pressed, fermented in neutral oak; the Syrah goes in 50% whole-cluster. Each lot spends a few months in barrel before blending. Bottled unfined, unfiltered, zero sulfur. 60 cases.
Chill it down. Goes everywhere — BBQ, picnic, Tuesday dinner.
PAIRINGS :
| Leg of lamb with herbes de Provence | the Carignan’s tart red fruit cuts through rich roasted lamb; floral note echoes the herbs |
| Grilled merguez sausage | North African spice and char echo the wine’s earthy, floral, peppery side |
| Mushroom and roasted tomato pizza | earthy umami and acidic tomato are a natural match for this bright, juicy red |
