About the Wine

Italian grapes take a California vacation in this distinctive red wine that combines the soul of Central Italy and the Pacific sun.

This ripe, dry blend is approachable, rich, and round. A one-of-a-kind blend that showcases the best of each contributing variety. It starts with the flavors of Tuscany in bold, intense Sangiovese, layered with the plush fruit of Dolcetto, purple plums of Montepulciano. The structured tannins, bold and earthy finish are layered by a touch of Cabernet Sauvignon.

Pairs well with Italian cuisine, beef, lamb and poultry. A great wine to drink on its own with about 20 minutes of decanting.

Pairs well with: Poultry, Beef, and Lamb

Character: Bold and Earthy

Ingredients

Grapes, Yeast, Malolactic Bacteria, and Sulfites

Soil-to-Sip

The HI-JUMP Red blend is sourced from three vineyards. The Dolcetto, Barbera, and Montepulciano come from the Foxhill Vineyard in the bench-lands of Mendocino County on the east side of Ukiah. The Cabernet Sauvignon comes from Gina’s Vineyard in the heart of Napa Valley, just outside of downtown St. Helena; and the Sangiovese comes from the Venturi Vineyard in the northern bench lands of Mendocino County.
This fruit was hand sorted and fermented in open top fermenters. These ferments were tended to as minimal as possible. Getting punched down or pumped over only when required. On average we used 15% whole cluster to introduce native vineyard yeasts, provide increased aromatics, and deepen structure.
The wine was aged in 80% neutral French Oak barrels and 20% 1-year-old French Oak Barrels for 10 months. The goal was a fresh low impact barrel program.
