WOW: A "JaM"min' Red Blend!

WOW: Wine of the Week

NEW to ShopUncorked.com: JaM Cellars Red Blend

JaM Cellars Red Blend 2010
It is time to JaM!

John and Michele Truchard are the owners of Jam Cellars. You may recognize some of their work from John Anthony Sauvignon Blanc (a ShopUncorked.com Client favorite!).  John is the eldest son of Tony and JoAnn Truchard, wine pioneers in California's Carneros district. The first plantings by the Truchard's were in 1974 when John was two. He has grown up amongst the vines accumulating knowledge to work and understand vineyards.

What's best about "JaM"min' with this little blend?!  The cost is LESS than $13.00 per bottle!

Winery Notes

JaM Cellars inspired and created by John and Michelle Truchard. JaM is a Petite Sirah based blend, aged in oak for about 6 months prior to bottling.  The slight amount of residual sugar in this wine pushes the limits of fruitiness.

JaM Cellars Red Blend 2010 Tasting Notes

"Dark, dense and creamy with complex aromas of black plum, ripe cherry and pepper merging with tobacco, coffee and dark chocolate.  On the palate there is an explosion of dark, super ripe, wild blackberry with just a hint of cigar box and exotic spice.  A pure fruit bomb, complete from the beginning to the long, lingering finish." - Winery Notes
