The 2021 Sanguis Misfit is a red blend that has a unique profile, combining dark, earthy, and savory notes with vibrant red and black fruit and a striking minerality. The blend features Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon from Santa Rita Hills and Happy Canyon. There's aromas of "damp forest with sunlight filtering through the thick canopy," along with lively fragrances from the dark undergrowth. Other notes are red cherry syrup, white flowers, boysenberry preserves, and milk chocolate. The palate is dense yet silky, with a striking minerality. Flavors include roasted figs, lemon blossom, dark chocolate shavings, and Turkish coffee. The finish is long and layered, with a combination of savory, fruit, and spice notes.
