Covenant - Neshama Proprietary Red Wine
Since building our own winery in Berkeley, we now have the freedom and ability to source grapes from many new and exciting vineyards and varietals. Tasting through barrel lots from the 2021 vintage, we realized we had some extraordinary
wines that were not Cabernet Sauvignon. They included Sonoma Valley Petit Verdot and Malbec as well as Bennett Valley Syrah. We selected a small number of our favorite barrels from these varietals to create a unique blend that reflects the highlights of the vintage from a Sonoma perspective.
This is a richly textured wine, replete with lush, round tannins that frame a multi-layered display of dark red fruit flavors. Blackberry, cassis, plum and black cherry come to mind, all laced with an appealing spice quality. The finish is long, lush and lingering.
