A rich, complex and full bodied blend of Cabernet, Zinfandel and Syrah from Lodi, California. This juice has already been steeped for 6 months in whisky oak from Wayne Gretzky Distillery. Kit also includes additional oak chips and cubes for complexity, as well as grape skins. 

New Concept: In a Winexpert first, juice for this limited release was pre-oaked in house, steeping for several months with whisky oak chips specially sourced from Wayne Gretzky Estates Winery and Distillery in Niagara.

During the 6-month steep, the juice absorbed flavours and tannin from the whisky oak, adding roundness to the body, elevating tannin, and infusing it with nuanced spice, brown sugar and vanilla character. These whisky-influenced rich notes round out a bold wine rich with flavours of blackcurrant, jammy wildberry and plum, underlaid with mocha, spice, and smoky toasted notes.
