*Vintage may vary by location*
The fruit for The Plow 2022 comes principally from the finest of our blocks, Block 1, with a special massal selection of PN777. The fruit is grown on Gelderman-Jory soils with a layer of large gravels that impart extra energy to the vines and create more complex flavors. In 2022 the fruit from three other blocks was incorporated into the final cuvée for the first time. Adding roundness from PN 115 in Block 3, power from Calera Clone in Block 6, and structure from PN 943 in Block 4, which is adjacent to Block 1. It may be the most intensely aromatic Plow produced to date. On entry there is a burst of red and black cherry, pomegranate with a finish that is structured and layered with ripe tannins. There is greater volume and dimensionality in this vintage, promising a long and beautiful life ahead.
This Plow is a wonderful partner with Rib-Eye, New York and Sirloin steaks, with Lamb Shoulder, Leg of Lamb, Lamb Loin, Roasted Duck, Grilled Duck Breast, savory preparations of Goose and Duck Liver, Porchetta, Sautéed or Grilled Pork Loin, wood-grilled meats and Franklin, Pecan Lodge or Smitty’s BBQ Brisket or Ribs (if you happen to be in Texas). Also with Peking Duck, Shaking Beef, mushroom rich broths and vegetable dishes.
