The nose of this vintage of Grand Cheval is filled with blackberry and blueberry pie, as well as white pepper, chard, and bitters. The palate has notes of orange peel, bay leaves, and a hint of eucalyptus. The finish is filled with tannins and pairs well with anything on the grill, especially tri-tip.
To make Grand Cheval we take the best characteristics of two very different varietals, Syrah from the Walla Walla Valley, and our own Pinot Noir grapes from the Dundee Hills, and blend them in perfect harmony to create our own version of the ideal “steakhouse wine.” This wine is substantial enough for the richest of dishes, yet soft enough to please any palate.
