Hobo Wine Company, Folk Machine Suisun Charbono - 2020
Charbono is one of the lesser-known "heritage" varieties of California, along with Valdigué and Zinfandel. While Zin is widely planted, the former two need to be protected and nurtured. Hobo takes on this responsibility, farming organically and producing single variety bottles of both. Here, the Charbono comes from a two-acre plot in the Suisun Valley. Long ripening and cool nights makes for fresh acid levels and high drinkability. Kenny says: "Typical for the grape, this wine is very dark in colour and heavy in the nose, but it doesn’t live up to this expectation. It actually drinks very pretty, almost light. The tannin level is moderate given the way it looks and smells." Concentrated dark berries and plums, baking spice and violets, with a spicy finish. Try with sausage parm or pulled pork tacos.
