The\u003cbr\u003ehues are bright and youthful. The aromas lead with blue and black fruits most notably\u003cbr\u003eblack raspberry along with blackberry and mulberry. The bouquet features sweet vanilla,\u003cbr\u003ehazelnut, and caramel. The flavors are rich and savory with plenty of soft ripe fruit framed\u003cbr\u003eby toasted oak creaminess. The tannins are mature and add richness and texture to a\u003cbr\u003esmooth finish that is free of drying astringency.\u003cbr\u003eTASTING NOTES\u003cbr\u003e‘1448’ is the elevation of our winery in Amador County’s Shenandoah Valley, where\u003cbr\u003ediurnal temperature shifts play a crucial role in winemaking. Unlike the Sacramento\u003cbr\u003eValley, our daytime highs are similar, but cooler alpine air lowers nighttime temperatures\u003cbr\u003esignificantly. This large temperature swing enhances color, acidity, and overall character\u003cbr\u003ein the grapes, producing wines with greater depth and complexity. While higher\u003cbr\u003eelevations bring cooler climates, frost limits commercial vineyards to around 3,000 feet. At\u003cbr\u003e1,448 feet, we are in the ideal range for varieties like Zinfandel and Barbera, allowing them\u003cbr\u003eto develop rich flavors while maintaining balance and structure.\u003cbr\u003eABOUT THE WINE\u003cbr\u003eVARIETALS: 53% Petit Verdot, 29% Petit Sirah, 5% Tannat, 5%\u003cbr\u003eBarbera, 3% Teroldego, the balance (5%) is a combination of,\u003cbr\u003eZinfandel, Cabernet Franc, Sangiovese, Primitivo, Grenache,\u003cbr\u003eTempranillo, Touriga, and Graciano.\u003cbr\u003eACIDITY: 0.65 g\/100ml TA, 3.56 pH\u003cbr\u003eALCOHOL: 13.9% by vol.\u003cbr\u003eRELEASED: January 15, 2025\u003cbr\u003eSPECS\u003cbr\u003eLABELS\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jeff Runquist","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43279573123296,"sku":"104839","price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0649\/9713\/0464\/products\/jeff-runquist-1448-proprietary-red-blend_1.jpg?v=1663887357","url":"https:\/\/www.mywineconnection.com\/products\/jeff-runquist-1448-proprietary-red-blend-2020-750ml","provider":"My Wine Connection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
