Wine Details
Price:
$20.00 per bottle
Description:
With the Marietta Port Lot One, winemaker Chris Bilbro begins a new tradition for Marietta Cellars. Following in the footsteps of the Old Vine Red “lot system,” a port will now be released periodically. The release will not be vintaged however, allowing for maximum blending ability, which in turn yields the greatest levels of consistency from one “lot” to the next. Lot One is a limited production blend consisting of Touriga, Souzao, Tinta Cao, Alvarlhao, Bastardo, and Zinfandel. Aged in new and seasoned French oak, it is not as sweet as traditional Portugese and Australian styles. With more of an emphasis on ripe, rich fruit, the nose offers deep, lush aromas. The mouth follows suit with a syrupy feel that drips with lingering jammy port and a subtle hint of toasty oak flavors.
