About Darling Wines: “Today, Darling Wines produces Pinot Noir, Syrah, and Chardonnay sourced from coastal vineyards in western Sonoma County, Marin County, Anderson Valley, and Mendocino Ridge. The goal is to produce wines with character and energy that showcase purity and site through transparent winemaking. With this goal in mind there is minimal handling from grape to bottle, restrained use of sulphur; in most cases, no synthetic additives or perfecting agents, fining or filtration, in an attempt to produce the most honest wine possible.”

Look At Their Dog

TASTING NOTES: “Medium to dark garnet in color, this wine smells of blackberry, marijuana resin, and wet pavement. In the mouth, faintly salty flavors of blackberry and blueberry mix with green herbs and wet earth. Fleecy tannins coat the mouth and stiffen slightly with time. Very herbal. Not vegetal, but definitely herbal and savory. Excellent acidity.” (AbV 11.5%)

VARIETALS: Syrah

BARRELS: 10 months in neutral French oak.

PAIRS WITH: “…the most versatile wine on your table as the seasons and dishes evolve towards the holidays.”

THAT REMINDS ME OF: The dog. The dog in the Darling video. I want to know more about the dog. Tell me its name.
