Surely the most unique, and maybe ambitious, wine in Mack’s portfolio. Because it’s from both Oregon and Washington, it isn’t vintage dated, but the nine grenades on the back label indicate it’s from 2019.
Mack says:
Horseshoes & Handgrenades is a fruit-driven, full-bodied complex red blend sourced from Southern Oregon and Washington State. The rich, ripe, voluptuous fruit comes from the Syrah out of the Rogue Valley in southwestern Oregon with just enough Washington Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot to give it complexity and structure. Barrel aged for 10 months.
This 2019 version, at 13.7%, is the richest and ripest yet (more handgrenade than horseshoe).
