Truth Dark & Jammy

80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Petite Sirah

 

Barbecued meats, burgers, or smoked brisket work wonderfully, as the jammy notes amplify smoky sauces. Hearty pasta dishes like Bolognese, lasagna, or meat ragù pair nicely, with the wine balancing tomato acidity and richness.

Bright violets and savory spices are met with hints of dark fruits and silky cherries; leading to a ripe - jammy finish.

Production follows standard premium California red winemaking: grapes are harvested at optimal ripeness to capture bold dark fruit intensity, fermented with selected yeasts for reliable expression, and then aged in French oak barrels to add subtle structure, vanilla, and spice notes without overwhelming the fruit with heavy wood influence. This restrained oak regimen, combined with the Petite Sirah's contribution of deep color, plush texture, and additional tannin backbone, results in a medium- to full-bodied wine with polished, moderate tannins, creamy mouthfeel, and a sumptuous yet straightforward profile
