Description from the Producer
Cuvée Heritage is the third vintage of our flagship red blend, but the first called Heritage – in homage to Ilya & Nadia’s Ukrainian heritage, and with an intention of building a heritage of tremendous red blends at Leaning Post.
2020 has been touted as the vintage of the century. All grapes were hand-picked at optimal ripeness, hand-sorted, spontaneously fermented, and aged separately in barrel for 20 months. Blending trials lasted weeks and many iterations were assembled before the final blend was agreed on. Never has Leaning Post made a blend with Cabernet Sauvignon & Syrah as dominant components – the best vintage of this blend to date!
Reminiscent of chasing your soulmate through the cool and misty moor, this wine is powerful, tortured, and epic!
Nose: This wine leaps from the glass with a big nose of blackberry, mulberry, inkwell, cocoa, white pepper, and baking spices.
Palate: A full and rich palate with real density and power shows blackberry, raspberry, and fig, with leather, cocoa, nutmeg, and smoker fennel sausage to provide a complex and intriguing background.
Finish: The firm tannic frame is held together by balanced acidity. This vintage can be cellared for well over a decade.
Pairing: This wine is for that special occasion you’ve been looking for a reason to celebrate. It will handle any dense protein you want to enjoy like prime rib and any other choice cuts of grilled meat. My favorite pairing is enjoyed by the light of a fireplace with a copy of Wuthering Heights in-hand.
