2021 El Cabrhone
This wine represents harmony and balance across elements that may seem to be a world apart. Behind my back, my team would joke that I was a “cabron,” meaning (in less colorful language) that I was a stickler; one who has a vision that I refuse to compromise. I'm not afraid of hard work, I don't cut corners, and I'm insistent that my team brings these same qualities to the winery every day. This blend is no different. In their original home of France, these three varietals scarcely share a latitude in common. Cabernet Sauvignon ("Cab") comes from the west, from Bordeaux, while Grenache and Petite Sirah come from southern and eastern France ("Rhone"). Due to their differing regions of origin, they can’t legally be blended or even grown with one another back home, but I know what a special synergy these grapes have when they get to know each other in a bottle, and I refuse to compromise my vision by blindly conforming to the traditions of the Old World. This is Paso, and we are Bodega de Edgar. This is Cabrhone. We are guided by aroma and taste, and traditions can be damned. I’ll always be a “cabron” about that.
