Pedroncelli Friends Red 2018

At Pedroncelli, wine is second nature to us. We love to entertain and share our stories over an easy-drinking glass of red wine. The friendships made are more important than the varietal or the shape of the glass. Here’s to friends!

VINTAGE: 2018

VINEYARD & VINTAGE NOTES

All sourced within Sonoma County, we searched for the highest quality fruit. The combined vineyards put all the best into your glass from our friendly neighborhood vineyards.  The vintage experienced a very good growing season with cooler night temperatures during harvest which allowed the grapes to mature at a slower pace, accumulating flavors and retaining acidity. 2018 is a very flavorful vintage with a high concentration of aromas and flavors.

TASTING NOTES

From the fruity aromas to the lingering finish, our friends Red showcases the best of the blend. Aromas of dark red berries and plum. Flavors of ripe berry, warm baking spices, and toasted oak accent the taste. It is a medium-bodied harmonious wine with a round fruity finish, a touch of spice and mild tannins. Made in a ready to drink style-no aging required.

THE BLEND

A singular combination of Merlot, Zinfandel and Syrah.

OAK

Aged for 10 months in small American oak barrels, 25% new oak. This amount of time allows the wine to take on some complexity from the oak but not too much—this is an approachable wine with smoothness from start to finish.

TOTAL ACIDITY: .538g/100ml
