About This Item

This reserve blend of Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre, and Tannat, honors Alice Halter, mother of proprietor Hansjörg Wyss. The 2020 Cuvée Alice has aromas of rose petals, blood orange, and bing cherry. The entry is soft, supple, and inviting to the palate with flavors of dragonfruit, raspberry, and mulled spices. The vibrant acid and low tannin structure makes this wine a perfect option for pairing with food, and equally a wine that will age gracefully.

Pair with charcuterie, wild game, duck, and bolognese sauces.

Enjoy now through 2050.
