BIG delivery to Matchbook this week! These 5 large

BIG delivery to Matchbook this week! These 5 large French oval barrels will be filled for our estate grown red wine program.

How much can these barrels hold? Math on a Friday? Wine not.
🍷Regular barrels can contain 60 gallons, that’s 25 cases or 300 750mL bottles.
🍷🍷🍷The large ovals can hold 25 times the qty of the regular barrels.
That’s roughly 1,500 gallons, 325 cases or 7,500 750mL bottles!

These large barrels enhance winemaking for a softer smoother wine. We are excited about this program.
Who’s ready for it?

We’re stirring some good things up for the weeke

We’re stirring some good things up for the weekend… and for our 2021 vintage of The Arsonist Chardonnay.

Stirring the yeast lees (residual dead yeast, grape skins and other particles) is part of the winemaking program for our Chardonnay at Matchbook. This stirring process also known as “Bâtonnage“ 1) adds a creamy mouthfeel with rich, full characters to the wine 2) it softens the tannins as the lees inhibit the extraction of tannins from the oak. 3) It clarifies the Chardonnay when it settles.
Once this settle in about week, we’ll stir things up again.

Not having Instagram and Facebook for a handful of

Not having Instagram and Facebook for a handful of hours was a bit dramatic. But, not as beautifully dramatic as this photo by @amateur_sommelier_ of our 2017 Tinto Rey Super Tinto Red Blend!

We are really glad he likes the wine! ⚔️🍷

Matchbook wines "Tinto Rey" Red Blend. This red blend was made with the idea of taking the Tinto Rey Tempranillo, and taking it to the next level with 56% Tempranillo, 22% Petit Verdot, 15% Tannat, and 7% Grasiano. This is a great blend that resembles an intense Spanish or Northern Italian type of blend. The aroma is vibrant with black cherry, blackberry, plum, tobacco, baking spice, and a bit of oak. The taste resembles the aroma with some enhanced flavors of black cherry, blackberry, baked plum, tobacco, baking spice, anise, oak and a little bit of cream. This is a bold/medium red with well defined flavors that really do layer themselves nicely. There is a bit of spice that's brought upon by the anise that makes a nice contrast for the bolder fruity flavors. The flavors have a long aftertaste where they fade away, showing each layer... and I may be crazy but I think I taste a bit of rose petals at the tail of the aftertaste? This has a nice sturdy dryness that helps intensify the earthier aspects of the wine. #matchbookwines #matchbook #redblend #tintorey #dunniganhills #tempranillo #californiawine #americanwine #midevil #sword #swordfight #vines #cellar #winelife #wineporn #instawine #wineoftheday #amateursommelier #amateur #sommelier #wineaddict #cheers #winestagram #satisfying #winecollector #wine #california
