Product Notes

Bonterra Vineyards The Butler Biodynamic Red wine is a stunning blend of organic grapes from Mendocino County, California, grown using biodynamic practices. A potpourri of Syrah, Grenache, Mourvedre, and Zinfandel, this deep red wine presents a symphony of flavours. The robust bouquet sings of ripe berries, clove and vanilla, whilst a sip reveals a tongue-tantalizing blend of dark fruit nuances and peppery spice. On the palate, it is rooted in richness yet manages to remain beautifully balanced. Aged in French oak barrels, this wine carries a friendly warmth that lingers on in a graciously long finish. Perfect for special occasions or leisurely evenings.

Tasting Notes

Deep purple with a slight red hue, this delicious wine leads with intense, complex aromas of spicy black fruit, cigar paper, and espresso. On the palate, ripe tannins frame a juicy mid-palate, enhancing elegant flavours of black fruit, anise, and subtle spices.
