About This Item
Deep in color, pleasant aromas of cherry and spice, berries and flowers introduce this blended red table wine. The medium-full body explodes on the palate with balanced acidity and mouth-coating tannin. Super-long in the finish, this is a versatile delicious food wine.
Like its namesake, this Griffin is a powerful combination of strengths. This year’s blend is 52% Syrah and 48% Merlot.
The Griffin – on the Foley family crest in Irish heraldry combines the strengths of the lion, king of beasts, with the eagle, king of the skies. A winemaker’s dream is to be artistically free to combine characters into wine that is purely hedonic and non-compliant with varietal regulations, so The Griffin’s blend changes with every vintage.
