Description

Buena Vista The Sheriff Red Blend, Sonoma County The story of our founder is as long as it is colorful. One of California's first sheriffs, Agoston Haraszthy was elected the Sheriff of San Diego County in 1850. He built the first  jail and served two exciting years before moving north to pursue "purple gold" and the perfect terroir for fine wines. He found it in Sonoma County where he established Buena Vista Winery in 1857- It is his legacy that inspired this wine and the work of sheriffs everywhere that we honor with  its release.

Tasting Notes
Aroma: 

A dark inky red color in the glass, this 2019 Red Wine has fragrant aromas of blackberry, blueberry and currants with notes of violets. 

Palate: 

This is a medium-bodied wine with elegant texture and polished tannins. Dark fruit flavors continue through to the palate and are layered with brambly herbs and a hint of dark chocolate. The finish is delicious and lingers.

Winemaking

The Sheriff of Buena Vista proudly calls Sonoma County its home. The varietals that compose the 2019 vintage are harvested from appellations throughout the county including Rockpile, Sonoma Valley, Fountaingrove District, Bennett Valley, Russian River Valley and Dry Creek Valley.
