    *3R* 2022 Populis “Wabi Sabi” Red Blend (Mendocino, CA)

    The 2022 Populis "Wabi Sabi" Red Blend is a wine that celebrates the beauty of imperfection and the uniqueness of each vintage. Crafted with an artisanal approach by the talented winemakers at Populis, this red blend reflects the essence of the vineyards and the varietals used.

    Blackberries, cherries, and plums mingle with subtle hints of wild herbs and earthy notes. The aromatics are honest and unpretentious, reflecting the harmony between the grapes and their growing conditions. The palate is equally authentic, with a medium-bodied profile that highlights the expressive fruit character. Ripe berries and red fruit flavors take center stage, with a touch of spice and earthiness that adds depth and complexity. The wine's supple tannins and balanced acidity create a harmonious and easy-drinking experience.

    About The Varietal

    Carignan

    Carignan is a grape variety with dark skin, believed to have originated in Aragon. This grape is prevalent in wines produced along the Mediterranean coast, particularly in northeastern Spain and the Languedoc-Roussillon region of France. It is frequently used for blending with other significant regional grape varieties, including Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvedre.
