Cline Farmhouse Red

2021 -The Cline Farmhouse Red is a homage to the Green String farm in Petaluma, California.  It was a 140 acre sustainable farm co-owned by Fred Cline and Bob Cannard that was well known for fresh produce, grass fed beef, free range chickens, nuts and honey.  Green String farm supplied some of San Francisco's top restaurants such as Chez Panisse, Olivet, Postrio and Odwalla.  In 2022 they were forced to close down after issues leftover from 2020, labor shortages and poor growing seasons in 2021 and 2022.  Cline Cellars keeps the Green String farm ethos alive for its sustainability, working with nature, and utilizing natural composts and cover crops.

The Farmhouse Red is a mashup of a healthy dose of Zinfandel, Syrah, Carignan, Grenache and Mourvedre. It is a pleasant inky red that explodes upfront with aromas of red plums, strawberries, blueberries, blackberries backed by cocoa and vanilla while featuring a well rounded palate, lush with a berry basket of fruits.  The bottle comes with a twist top so it is ready to go whenever the notion hits you for pizza night, kicking it with a movie, party with friends or just some me time.
