La bauge au-dessus means "the wallow up above," a reference, perhaps, to the wine's high-elevation origins. It's dominated by berry and cherry flavors with an alluring, green tea–like, savory edge.

Go to Recipe

Don't be fooled by the playful label (which features an eight-year-old's watercolor)—this is a very serious wine. A classic New World–style Syrah, it delivers a cascade of luscious dark fruit, spice and oak flavors encased in ripe, chewy tannins.
