Under the leadership of Dave Phinney, Orin Swift produces exceptional wines of exceptional quality. All wines feature captivating labels that will repeatedly tempt you to discover what lurks beneath the cork. Each wine is full-bodied and intense, yet with the right structure to hold everything together. Dave isn't afraid to combine different varietals and even appellations to create a unique wine. This means that each wine is rigorously inspected before bottling and marketing.
This also applies to this Palermo. The grapes come from old vines, which blend perfectly. Thanks to the ideal climate, the grapes can ripen perfectly. The grapes are carefully harvested by hand and gently transported to the winery in small crates. After destemming and pressing, they are left to age for months. After strict quality control, the wine is bottled and released onto the market.
The nose reveals beautiful aromas of blackcurrant, blueberries, and a subtle hint of butterscotch. The palate is overwhelming and explosive in the best sense of the word. Delicious hints of ripe raspberries, black cherries, caramel, cloves, and licorice. The tannins make this wine a true powerhouse.
