SARACINA
OLD SOUL RED
2018 MENDOCINO
An area that’s a pinnacle of sustainable farming, Mendocino County has 25% of its grape growers certified organic, the largest percentage in the nation. Many wineries in this region are less interested in building extravagant tasting rooms and instead are focused on naturally crafting exceptional wines that express the identity of Mendocino County.
Saracina’s 2018 Old Soul is a blend of 43% Zinfandel, 31% Malbec, and 26% Petite Sirah, all grown on site-specific vineyards ideal for each varietal to express its most unique characteristics. The 2018 release has an “intriguing personality,” as noted by Wine Enthusiast, offering tremendous quality for the price, perfectly representing the region’s soul with a conscious sense of place and delightful energy.

“Based on Malbec, Zinfandel, and Petite Sirah, the 2018 Old Soul Red By Saracina is another outstanding, sexy red from winemaker Alex MacGregor. Medium to full-bodied, it has lots of blue fruits, notes of peppery herbs and violets, and a balanced, delicious style. Enjoy bottles over the coming 2-4 years or so.”

“Tones of dark chocolate and rich black fruit give an intriguing personality to this full-bodied, moderately tannic wine. Cocoa notes melt on the palate as the flavors expand through a lingering finish.”
