Caduceus Le Cortigiane Oneste Barbera Merlot

Caduceus Le Cortigiane Oneste Barbera Merlot is a captivating blend that showcases the unique terroir of Arizona's Verde Valley. Crafted by Maynard James Keenan, renowned front man of the band Tool, this wine embodies a harmonious marriage of artistry and viticulture.

Composed of 95% Barbera and 5% Merlot, the grapes are meticulously sourced from the Marzo and Eliphante blocks, two distinguished vineyards known for their ideal microclimates and rich soils. This precise selection contributes to the wine’s vibrant character and depth.

The palate reveals aromatic bright fruit notes that balance beautifully with an Old World style sensibility, offering elegance and complexity. The 18-month aging process in French cask and puncheon imparts subtle nuances of oak, enhancing the wine’s structure and smooth finish.

Le Cortigiane Oneste is perfect for those who appreciate a refined yet expressive red, with layers of cherry, plum, and hints of spice that reflect the distinctiveness of Verde Valley’s growing conditions. This wine stands out as a sophisticated choice for pairing with a variety of dishes or savoring on its own.
