St George Bruto Americano 750ml

St George Bruto Americano is a dry, red wine with complex aromas and flavors. The nose presents notes of dark fruits, herbs, and spices, while the palate is structured and full-bodied with firm tannins. This wine pairs well with grilled meats and hearty pasta dishes.

Bruto Americano is St. George's flagship wine, and it is produced from a blend of old-vine Zinfandel, Carignane, Alicante Bouschet, and Petite Sirah. The grapes are grown in St. George's Estate vineyards in Lodi, California. These vineyards are sustainably farmed and the grapes are hand-harvested. After fermentation, the wine is aged for 18 months in French oak barrels.
