Characteristics and Tasting Tips for the Sticks and Stones 2014 from Linne Calodo

Tasting Robe The robe reveals a bright, luminous red hue, characteristic of the expression of Grenache. Nose The nose reveals a brilliant bouquet of red fruit aromas, with notes of raspberries, strawberries, and sugared breadcrumbs. A floral note contributed by the Cinsault adds an elegant violet dimension to the palate. Palate On the palate, the wine stands out for its vivacity and dynamism. The tannins are present and structured, offering a texture that is both lively and enveloping. The natural acidity of the Grenache gives the wine a remarkably airy lightness. The finish extends with mineral, chalky notes, a signature of the limestone soils of the estate. The Estate The Krug Champagne House was founded in 1843 by Joseph Krug, a visionary and passionate man. Food and Wine Pairings A food and wine pairing is recommended for this wine. The Sticks and Stones 2014 pairs ideally with wild game meats such as boar or venison. It also harmonizes well with herb-braised lamb, a roasted chicken with a crispy skin, or a toasted bread with crab. Cheese lovers will appreciate it with a creamy, bloomy-rind cheese. Service and Storage The Sticks and Stones 2014 is recommended for serving at approximately 16–18°C (60–65°F). It should be stored in a cool, dark place. Winemaking and Aging The Sticks and Stones 2014 was vinified using a winemaking approach characteristic of the Linne Calodo philosophy. The fermentation was carried out with 20% whole clusters in concrete and stainless steel tanks, allowing for natural temperature regulation. The fermentations were conducted exclusively with indigenous yeasts. The malolactic fermentation also took place naturally. The aging was performed in French oak barrels, complemented by a few new oak barriques, providing a measured influence of wood. This California wine was neither fined nor filtered.
