Our Immigrant blend comes entirely from our True Vineyard located at 1,800 feet in elevation. Outpost grapes are harvested late in the season - by hand, at dawn - to preserve the full intensity and distinctive spicy character of the mountain fruit. Wines are neither fined or filtered allowing for the full expression of the vintages' potential.
Tasting Notes
"Smoky blue and black fruits, iron, black olive, and bouquet garni notes all emerge from the 2021 True Vineyard Immigrant. Deep, inky purple, with an incredibly layered, seamless, and full-bodied profile, it shines just as much for its balance and elegance as its power and richness. This absolutely sensational wine can be drunk any time over the coming 20+ years." - Jeb Dunnuck, 98 Points
