2017 marks only our second vintage of this red wine blend. Made in honor of our humble beginnings in the red wine field blends Bob made in the early 1970's, and to celebrate the Boys in our lives, Benjamin and Shane Brakesman.
This little gem started out as an experiment in 1996 made with the "second crop" left out on the vines in November. Not something we do every year, but something you should always have on hand! Pairs perfectly with chocolate, berries and cream, cigars or a good fire.
Named for the Brakesman's second granddaughter Clair Riley. You'll just have to come visit for the Pirate story...
Silky, spicy, and well balanced without being overly sweet. Drink now or age 30+
