Old Bridge Chambourcin 2006 Missouri Dry Red Wine

Old Bridge Chambourcin 2006 Missouri Dry Red Wine Wine Details
Price: $17.99 per bottle

Description: The meandering road to Chandler Hill takes travelers along the scenic Femme Osage Creek. The historic bridge is gone but a new one brings guests to our lush fields of Chambourcin grapes. This robust and earthy offering boasts a tantalizing nose of ripe plums combined with flavors of pomegranate and dark chocolate. Our Chambourcin is blended with Petit Verdot and offers just an essence of oak.

Varietal Definition
Chambourcin:
A french-american hybrid used to make red wines with fruity flavors and some herbaceousness. Grown in the cooler regions of Eastern U.S. and Canada. Decreasing acreages also found in Europe; due to stringent European Union rules these varieties cannot be blended with traditional varieties.
