ROAM PIGGY ROAM Originally this was going to be called ‘Rhone Piggy Rhone‘ based on the little piggy who would Run Run Run. But then we ran into some legal trouble with a famous French Appellation (hint: it wasn’t the Loire). Anyway, after taking some time out to observe a few pigs in their natural habitat, we noticed to our surprise that these free- spirited animals are in fact rather leisurely. And so it was that roaming pigs inspired this award winning label. 2015 Blended Cultivars – Syrah 67% / Grenache 33% Alcohol % Vol – 14.5 % Total Acid – 5.3 g/L Residual Sugar – 2.4 g/L pH – 3.58 Oaking – 100% Barrel ferment in French Oak Barrels for 20 months.
