Fess Parker Big Easy 2017 - From Santa Barbara County, this California Rhone Blend offers smoked black cherries, roasted meats, lilac, oak and an intriguing floral bouquet on the the nose, leading to a smooth palate of well-integrated oak flavors and bold tannins that frame black-cherry fruit. Inspired by culinary mecca and one of their favorite cities, New Orleans, this blend is 53% Syrah, 32% Grenache and 15% Petite Sirah, and spends 17 months in 48% new French & American oak barrels.  It's bold, full-bodied and firm with very chewy tannins and a freshness that finishes dense and oaky. 

Food Pairing - Great for barbecues, with beef, pasta, lamb, or game (deer, venison).
