Winemaker Comments
The Eos ‘French Connection’ is a blend of traditional red Bordelaise grape varieties, grown in some of the finest vineyard sites within the Paso Robles AVA. A careful selection of barrel lots is made prior to blending, favoring elegance and structure over simple fruit and oak impact. The result is a seamless, sophisticated red wine with depth and character, which pays homage to the classic wines of Bordeaux, while remaining true to its Paso Robles roots.Wine Profile:

Tasting Notes:
Rich, dark tones of new leather and cigar wrapper are on par with deep blackcurrant and dried plum tones. Rich and full-textured, with firm tannins that should allow for mid-term cellaring.
Food Pairing:
Pairs well with rich meats – duck, lamb, venison, beef; even grilled Portobello mushrooms. Exceptional with cheeses; either a creamy style such as Camembert or Pierre-Robert, or a pungent bleu, such as Stilton or Roquefort.
