Barbara Ann
100% Marquette Red Wine
Tasting Notes: Medium bodied, fruit forward, dry red, with lower, but not non-existent tannin profile. Brambly fruit with notes of black pepper and black fruits, notably cherry. Higher acid and alcohol make it a versatile food pairing option for meat dishes like grilled steak or pork.
Background: The curvy trunks of our Marquette vines tell one story that echoes another. Within their non-linear growth pattern lies strength and complexity that reflect the attributes of the matriarch of our family, Barbara Ann. Barbara Ann is resilient and radiant; the triumphs and hardships in her life have shaped her serious and adventuring spirit. Similarly, the brightness and subtleties in this Marquette reflect its history nestled in ancient limestone on the shores of Lake Champlain.
