McCormick Ranch Carignan
San Diego County, South Coast, California, USA
Thin and vinaigry. Carignan is a hard grape to rein in, this attempt didn't change my mind. Searing acidity, like drinking salty rosé.

Initial taste felt sweet but then turned very complex and almost spicy. Had a little bit of a burn in the after taste. Very enjoyable.

Funky nose. Bright, really fruit forward first taste, but thin and unsatisfying finish. Not a fan.

Jun 6th, 2015This has got to be the most refreshing red wine I ever had...with jamet CdR trailing shortly behind. No minerals here for contemplation but lord am I high on acid right now! This one's all about the judicious decisions very obviously made by the winemaker here to extract intensely on what most would consider grapes just barely hitting ripeness. Clocking in at a whopping 12% alcohol I could drink this all day everyday. Ultra clean strawberry dark cherry lemonade this one. Highly pleasurable and highly unique. Ate it with just about everything in my pantry just for fun and all of it worked. Definite recommendation. Another one up for american winemakers 👍👌
