Description

Fronteras Wines' Los Primos is more than just a wine; it's an experience, a journey into the heart of California winemaking. It comes from Fronteras Wines, a winery dedicated to crafting wines that reflect the unique terroir of California. The 'Los Primos' label, meaning 'The Cousins' in Spanish, suggests a familial bond, a connection to heritage and tradition. The wine itself is a carefully constructed Red Blend, a symphony of flavors that dance on the palate. While the exact composition of grapes may vary from vintage to vintage, expect a harmonious blend of classic varietals like Zinfandel, Merlot, or Cabernet Sauvignon. This blend allows the winemaker to craft a wine with complexity and depth, showcasing the best of what California has to offer. On the nose, Los Primos is inviting, with aromas of ripe blackberries and plums, hints of vanilla from oak aging, and a touch of spice that adds intrigue. The palate is well-balanced, with soft tannins and a smooth, lingering finish. This wine is not overly heavy or oaky, making it a versatile choice for various occasions. It's the kind of wine you can easily enjoy on its own, perhaps while relaxing after a long day, or share with friends over a casual dinner. Its medium body and bright fruit flavors make it an excellent accompaniment to grilled meats, roasted vegetables, or pasta dishes. The touch of spice also means that it pairs well with slightly bolder flavors, like those found in Mexican or Southwestern cuisine. Think of it with carne asada, tacos al pastor, or even a hearty chili. The wine also goes well with hard cheese.
