Durif Library Trio 2016-2018

Enjoy three award-winning Library vintages of our cult wine - Durif!

2016 DURIF

DOUBLE GOLD -  San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition 
DOUBLE GOLD -  San Francisco International Wine Competition 


Intensely flavored and bold, our 2016 Durif opens with prominent aromas of blackberries and dark chocolate, with hints of spice and clay. The subtle earthiness compliments the dense tannins and Durif ’s trademark acidity. With notes of espresso and a hint of minerality, this wine is best paired with foods with equally big and bold flavors, such as short ribs or grilled tri-tip.  

2017 DURIF

GOLD, 92 POINTS - Sommelier Challenge
GOLD - San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition

This vintage is truly excellent, displaying a deep and rich color. The palate is treated to notes of dark plum and indulgent dark chocolate. The experience concludes with a satisfying and lingering finish, adding to the wine's overall allure.

93 POINTS + EDITOR'S CHOICE - Wine Enthusiast "This gorgeous, concentrated and warmly tannic wine carries the French name for Petite Sirah.

Excellent ripeness accompanies good structure for an appetizing balance that demands sip after sip. Editors’ Choice." — Jim Gordon
