TASTING NOTES
Scythian Wine Co. is a new project from sommelier-turned-vigneron Raj Parr that highlights the nearly lost viticultural heritage of Los Angeles. Before prohibition, the city was the center of the California wine industry, producing highly regarded wines from varieties like Palomino, Mission, Garnacha Tintorera and Zinfandel planted on sandy soils. -Importer's Notes
This interesting co-ferment red has savory flavors of spiced red fruit with pomegranate accents, refreshing acidity and a touch of saline. It's rustic and juicy and would be a tasty pairing with pulled pork, veggie chilli or a mushroom burger.
