Rasta Bob Red 2017
Nose bright, brandied cherry, hibiscus, strawberry, red raspberry, floral, pretty. Bucket of berries, complex, wow! Flavors of red raspberries with pomegranate, a hint of citrus rind and cherry. Some spice with nicely integrated oak, smooth and juicy. Will cellar well and develop further. Created by our cellar staff and winemaker who laboriously put this blend together from countless blending trials. To honor the memory of our head cellar rat-Bob Thistle.

Woodenhead Vintners
Nikolai Stez is the Woodenhead winemaker. He has been at fermentation since he was a boy making the traditional Russian drink "kvas" (a fermented bread or fruit drink) that his immigrant parents taught him to make. In college, he made wines for his biology and botany classes, and started making home wines in earnest since 1986. Nick worked for 17 years of crush fun for the famous "two guys in a garage cult winery" that put Russian River Valley Pinot on the map. Working for Burt Williams as an assistant winemaker confirmed his life's passion for wine. Born in San Francisco and living on the Russian River since age one, he considers the North Coast his back yard and knows it well, from Sonoma County north to Humboldt and Del Norte. The coast range is his playground.
