DESCRIPTION
2015 Purple Heart Red Wine
Crafted from hand-selected lots of choice Sonoma County fruit, the 2015 Purple Heart has aromas of cedar, plums, blackberries and black currant with hints of black licorice. Dark ruby and opaque in appearance, this medium-bodied wine is lushly textured with notes of red and black fruits, blueberry and hints of cardamom. Seamless across the palate, the wine has a long, velvety mouthfeel and finely balanced tannins. It will drink beautifully upon release and will continue to gain complexity and grace with 4-5 years cellaring. Appellation: Sonoma County Alc: 14.2% pH: 3.46 TA: 0.59g/100ml Blend: 67% Merlot, 19% Zinfandel, 8% Petit Verdot, 6% Cabernet Franc
Winemaker, John Moynier
In April 2017, Marc and Peter Jr. turned to an old friend—John Moynier—to assume the winemaking helm at Purple Heart Wines. A proud veteran of the US Air Force from 1968-1972, John was inspired to return from retirement and dedicate himself to supporting the Purple Heart Foundation’s mission by crafting this exceptional red blend. A graduate of UC Davis’ Fermentation Science program, John has been making wines for the C Mondavi Family for over thirty years. He views Purple Heart as the perfect capstone to a storied winemaking career.
