2018 Happy Valley Red
2018 Happy Valley Red
Celebrating the rebirth of the vineyard after the Thomas Fire. With only half the vines surviving the fire, our 2018 Happy Valley Red is a true field blend with all the grapes co-fermented together in the same barrels. Made to reflect the best of the Ojai Alisal vineyard each vintage year, this medium body red, is a smooth blend of our Grenache, Syrah Mourvedre, and Malbec, with flavors of cherries, plums and blackberries, along with hints of tobacco, chocolate and leather.
