Gnarly Head Description
GNARLY INSPIRATION: The year was 1924. It was the heart of the Prohibition Era and wine’s darkest hour when it was outlawed and deemed unconstitutional. It was also the year our family first planted vineyards in California and farmed grapes that were sold to friends and neighbors. Story goes some of these grapes might have been used to make wine. 1924 Double Black is a Prohibition-style dark red blend that pays homage to our family’s first vineyard plantings in 1924 and bold underground grape dealings during Prohibition’s black market of winemaking. Fruit for this limited edition blend of Zinfandel, Merlot and Syrah was sourced from vineyards throughout Northern California. Crafted in the throwback, field blend style preferred by Prohibition Era speakeasies, 1924 upholds the Gnarly Head maxim: bold and unapologetically rebellious.
WINE: Gnarly Head 1924 Double Black delivers rich aromas of raspberry, blackberry, cocoa and caramel, setting the stage for juicy, concentrated core flavors of fig jam, dark chocolate, toasted marshmallow and brown spices. Jet black in the glass, pair this full-bodied wine with equally bold dishes: charbroiled bacon cheeseburgers, spicy sausage gumbo or pork baby back ribs slathered in barbecue sauce.
