Broc Cellars Love California Red Blend Wine 2021 Vintage

Love Red 2021 – North Coast Heritage Blend
Broc Cellars honors California’s viticultural legacy with this 2021 red blend crafted from 7 heritage grape varieties. Designed for those who appreciate nuanced yet approachable wines, Love Red combines tradition with modern sustainability practices.

Grape Composition
– 51% Carignan (old-vine character)
– 25% Syrah & Mourvèdre (structure)
– 12% Valdiguié & 3% Zinfandel (brightness)
– 2% Petite Sirah & Grenache Noir (complexity)

Winemaker’s Philosophy
Early harvest preserves vibrant acidity (12.5% ABV) while capturing wild berry aromatics. Native yeast fermentation enhances terroir expression without added sulfites. Carignan undergoes partial carbonic maceration for juicy fruit notes, while Syrah/Petite Sirah are destemmed for structured tannins.

Aging & Texture
24 months in neutral French oak + concrete tanks maintain freshness. The result? A medium-bodied red with bright acidity that balances blueberry/rhubarb notes against savory herb undertones.

Why Love Red Stands Out
✓ Preserves 100+ year-old California vineyards
✓ Certified organic winemaking practices
✓ Complex flavor profile without heaviness
✓ Ideal food pairing companion (BBQs to gourmet dinners)

Note: Alcohol content 12.5%. Varietal percentages may vary slightly by vintage.
