Greg Koenig crafts the wines for several brands in Idaho’s Snake River Valley, yet he also carves out the time to farm his slowly expanding vineyard in the Sunnyslope Wine District. This blend of muscular Bordeaux varieties leads with Petit Verdot (55%), and follows with Cabernet Sauvignon (35%) and Merlot, yet comes with a pleasing tannin structure. It’s redolent of black fruit – plums, black cherry and black currant with a kitchen cabinet of baking spices that include anise. As a result, it received a gold medal at the 2017 Idaho Wine Competition.
