Herbs, fruit, some tannin, and a hint of bitterness on the finish. I don't recall the blend here, but it's from Pedroncelli and it looks like it will live up to the Pedroncelli ageing curve.

Probably will save a bunch for Christmas. (604 views) | | | Tasted by PolarBear22 on 12/26/2019 & rated 88 points: Very nice blend.

(886 views) | | | Tasted by klezman on 8/7/2018: Tasty, mineral, nice finish, herbs, dark fruit, relatively soft but with just enough tannin to make the palate more interesting. Overall a good bottle.
Good on day 2 as well...the structure and tannin were more apparent as well. A surprisingly robust bottle! (1979 views) | | | Tasted by foobarski on 7/7/2018 & rated 89 points: Earthy, green pepper-y nose. Somewhat dusty on the tongue, kind of muted and soft, but pleasantly so. Hides the fairly high (14.7%) alcohol well. (771 views) |

2015 Woot Cellars Under the MistletoeComposition: A proprietary blend of Merlot, Zinfandel, Petite Sirah and Syrah
Alcohol: 14.7%
Vinification: 11 months in new and seasoned American oak barrels with 20% new oak. Working toward an approachable style, the time in oak softens the wine and adds complex layers to the finished product. The oak influence is nuanced and a supporting player by the judicious use of new oak blended with seasoned barrels.
Vinted and bottled by Pedroncelli Winery.Red Blend.USAAmerican wine has been produced since the 1500s, with the first widespread production beginning in New Mexico in 1628. Today, wine production is undertaken in all fifty states, with California producing 84% of all U.S. wine. The continent of North America is home to several native species of grape, including Vitis labrusca, Vitis riparia, Vitis rotundifolia, and Vitis vulpina, but the wine-making industry is based almost entirely on the cultivation of the European Vitis vinifera, which was introduced by European settlers. With more than 1,100,000 acres (4,500 km2) under vine, the United States is the fourth-largest wine producing country in the world, after Italy, Spain, and France.California2021 vintage: "Unlike almost all other areas of the state, the Russian River Valley had higher than normal crops in 2021, which has made for a wine of greater generosity and fruit forwardness than some of its stablemates." - Morgan Twain-Peterson Sonoma CountyMendocino CountyDry Creek Valley Winegrowers of Dry Creek Valley | Dry Creek Valley Association | Appellation America | San Francisco Chronicle Article |
