Marinara! is the JOYFUL FEELING of red sauce dinners with pasta, pizza, chicken and eggplant parm, melty mozzarella, etc. Not limited to Italian-American fare, Marinara! is a prime selection for all foods that are saucy, melty, or roasted.

Somewhere between pizza and pasta... Marinara! is an evolving Italian red blend custom-fit for the red and white checkered tablecloth. This vintage is composed of Teroldego, Montepulciano, Zinfandel, and Grenache. Carbonic-macerated Montepulciano lays the primary foundation of bright plum/haw flake and tomato with a fine, powdery tannic structure. Teroldego contributes rich pigment, a moderate tannic structure, and complex earthy/animal notes. Zinfandel defines an acid-driven backbone with sour cherry notes. A minor fraction of plush Grenache adds a dash of concentration and strawberry fruit leather tones. 

Winemaking 
Montepulciano underwent 2 weeks of carbonic maceration while all other varieties were destemmed and fermented for 2 weeks in 1.5 ton open-top fermentors. All destemmed lots began with twice daily pump-overs, yielding to twice daily punch-downs a few days into fermentation. Each variety was pressed separately and aged in neutral oak for 6 months. All wines were fermented with native yeast and bacteria
