Nebbiolo, New Mexico
Rich in tradition, St. Clair and Southern New Mexico share a common heritage in winemaking. As America's oldest wine producing region, New Mexico has the ideal climate and fertile soil needed for growing quality grapes. These conditions, combined with New Mexico's largest, most state-of-the-art winery, have resulted in the creation of numerous award-winning wines. Established in 1984, St. Clair's traditions are preserved by my brother and I, carrying on our family's six-generation history of winemaking. Just like New Mexico's first vintners, our goal is to produce great wines for your enjoyment in the company of friends and family - Florent Lescombes, Winemaker. Our Nebbiolo is rich in color, dark and brooding in texture, with flavors of deep plum, rich spice, mild blueberry and cassis. Its' touches of oak add a wonderful bit of spicy grit to the wine, rounding it out and adding a layer of complexity. Alc 12.5% by vol.
