Description
Railsback Le Carignan 2019
Varietal: Carignan
Strawberries, cranberries, and baking spices, with herbaceous flavors of umami and sandalwood. A perfect match for cured meats, dark leafy greens, and of course the ubiquitous burger or pizza night!
Railsback Frères began as a rosé project in 2014 by brothers Lyle and Eric Railsback, who call their rosé “Les Rascasses” (scorpion fish in French) as an homage to Lulu Peyraud. Lulu was the proprietress of Domaine Tempier in Bandol, maker of their favorite rosé in Provence. Lyle did National Sales for legendary French importer Kermit Lynch for twelve years before leaving to focus on the Santa Ynez project. His brother Eric started Lieu Dit wines in Santa Barbara, inspired by wines of the Loire valley, and owns Verve Wine in NYC and San Francisco.
