True to the spirit of this wine…Miscela is Italian for “blend”…we see how grapes from many different vineyards can come together to make a satisfying Bordeaux blend. More new world in style than our Abbinare blend of a similar concept. Our first vintage that’s Cabernet Franc heavy… yum, yet followed closely by lots of Cab and Malbec. This wine is a touch of the exotic, lots of fun to drink. We call it Washington State in a glass…
