This week we’ll be pouring The Cicada’s red and white blends! The vineyard is situated in the little village of Travaillan, north of Chateauneuf-du-Pape, between Cairanne and Rasteau. Both Blends have wonderful balance, acidity and notes of fresh fruits.
“Beefy in body and also in flavor, this full-bodied wine brings aromas like singed rosemary and flavors like maraschino cherries and barbecue sauce. It has moderate tannins for a grippy mouthfeel.”
“This wine slathers butter and vanilla aromas together with overripe pear and pineapple flavors for an assertive profile. It feels full bodied, tastes slightly sweet and has a cushy soft texture.”
