The name Lion Tamer has become a nickname for Malbec because we use it as our tannin tamer. Much like a Lion Tamer who uses a deft hand to soothe powerful, instinctive animals, Winemaker Dave Guffy uses Malbec to soothe powerful tannins. This red blend brings all the roar of Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon and Petite Sirah, and when blended with Malbec, produces a big, lush wine that finishes with smooth and tamed round tannins.

Alcohol ABV: 14.8 - 15.1%

Blend: Predominantly Malbec with Zinfandel, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petite Sirah and Merlot

Pairs well with Lamb
