Orin Swift Abstract 2019

For many years, Abstract has followed its namesake by showing off an assemblage of Grenache, Petite Sirah and Syrah. Together, the wine stands on its own as a unique peek into Orin Swift; each varietal brings its own characteristics providing a depth and complexity. Immediate aromatics escape the glass: blueberry, Mirabelle plum, ripe raspberry, cherry and musk. On entry, the wine is seamless and enveloping with notes of Black plum, sweet cassis and blueberry compote on the mid-palate. Textured and long on the finish, the wine closes with a hint of dried lavender and dark chocolate.
