Guilty
George Shinas utilizes his all consuming passion for perfection and time honored traditions to create some amazing handcrafted wines. Shinas minimizes the use of irrigation, a practice by which many French winemakers claim, curbs standardization of wines across vintages. The Winery also employs a horizontal trellis system, which allows for ideal fruit exposure which ripens the fruit to perfection.
The grapes are also left on the vines much longer than on average. This allows for more intense round flavors. The grapes are all harvested by hand with only the very best quality being selected. The nose smells of fresh Black Cavendish pipe tobacco. Some tasty notes of spices and black cherry permeate this beauty of bottle. This wine stays true to its name; definitely a guilty pleasure.
