About Skylark Wine Company: “During their tenure at Boulevard, [John Lancaster and Robert Perkins] have built a close friendship, an inventory of wines from around the globe and a palate of tasting wines of the world from vintage to vintage. This partnership has created long-term relationships with the entire scope of the wine industry, from winemakers to vineyard managers to owners. With these relationships, their next logical progression was the realization of a dream: making fine wine from select vineyards in Northern California.”

The Lark of the Sky

TASTING NOTES: “Ruby red. Ripe fruit aromas of plum, red raspberry and black cherry with a violet floral top note. The medium-bodied palate is ripe and creamy, with the plum and wild berry fruit complimented by warm brown spice and sweet, firm tannin. The textural palate impression leads into a long fruit-imbued finish with tannin and fruit in perfect harmony.“ (AbV 14.5%, pH 3.68, TA 6.0 g/L)

VARIETALS: 45% Syrah, 32% Carignane, 23% Grenache.

BARRELS: Looks like French oak.

THAT REMINDS ME OF: Skylarks.

Here’s the thing… Larks are birds. You may gasp, if you wish. In fact there are many larks out there other than the skylark. Just to name a few: the dune lark. The sun lark. The Mediterranean short-toed lark. The greater hoopoe-lark! The rufous-rumped lark!

So, what makes a skylark more of a sky lark than the rest? Because they sing specifically while they are flying! There you have it.
