BIG GUN 2013 Red Blend CALIFORNIA Alexander Valley, Lake County & Napa Valley You there! Yes you, I dare you to try and find a wine that is an equal in muscular flavor to the amazing 2013 Big Gun Red Blend. You’d be hard pressed to find a wine that packs as much fruit with adroit acidity than this well-‐balanced fella. Big Gun punches well above its class when it comes to price, and I defy you to find a potent potable as powerfully smooth and satisfying as this wine. Winemaker’s Notes Ripe red fruit flavors of strawberry and cherry followed by some plum and cola. Dark garnet in color, the wine has a full and plush texture that yields flavors of dark, brambly fruit as well as spice and toasted oak. Blend 75% Syrah, 8% Merlot, 7% Carignane, 5% Cabernet Franc, 5% Petite Verdot Maturation Aged for 12 months in 30% new French oak and the balance in neutral barrels. Alc 14.5%
