About the wine
Old-vine Carignan from a registered historic vineyard in Northern California
Carignan usually calls Spain, France and Italy home, but when it's grown stateside with ample sunshine, this red is a mind blowing, food-friendly wine exploding with flavors like black cherry, blueberry and a touch of savory spice.
Macario long dreamed of making wine from this sandy-soil vineyard planted in the 1890s by Azorean immigrants. Angels made his dream happen! With your funding, he secured enough fruit to make a special limited-release of single-variety old-vine Carignan.
Other wines from the Evangelho vineyard are famous – and sell for famous prices. This is a steal of a deal for a rare single-vineyard red – and it’s worth the investment!
Best before
This needs time. Its a baby and is best in about 2-3 years from release date. If you must, open an hour or so before enjoying.
Serving advice
Open and decant for about an hour.
Food match
Beer can chicken...
Contains sulphites
Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Macario Montoya
Macario worked his way up from cellar worker to Napa and Sonoma star winemaker – leading by example for other Latino winemakers.
While Macario is Napa-based, he’s garnered attention for his Mediterranean-style wines in California – his Lodi blends and especially his Macario Montoya reds from Contra Costa’s heritage vineyards – whose label depiction of the old vines shows off the artistic talents of his brother, Maceo Montoya.
With your support, Macario’s reach knows no bounds – he is Sin Fronteras – without borders. He gives back tenfold, creating opportunities for underrepresented Latino winemakers like him.
