Description

Orin Swift Cellars Machete

The baddest wine of them all, Machete takes no prisoners. Orin Swift Cellars Machete takes no prisoners. It's in-your-face aromatically, punching your mouth from within. The tannins remind you of what it's like to feel and the ink will put a smile on your face. Robust, dominant and unapologetic, the wine creates its own gravity, pulling all towards it.

Violet ink colour. Forward nose of black plums, cassis and cacao engage. The robust entry is a blackberry and boysenberry compote punch with a reduction of dark plum, ripe figs and pure Amarena cherry. Flashes of vanilla and traces of minerality evolve into chalky tannins and a smooth lingering finish.

A blend of Petite Syrah, Syrah and Grenache. The goal with Machete was to elevate Petite Syrah to the main stage and showcase its multi-dimensionality: how it can be both brawny and delicate at the same time. To create the best possible Petite Syrah-based blend from California, Orin Swift chose quality individual wine lots from prominent vineyards across California to create a seamless blend with both finesse and power. Ageing for 10 months in French Oak, 40% new.
