Nevada City\u00c2\u00a0is just a ways &#8220;over the hill&#8221; from here so their wines are plentiful in our area. This one is a blend of 40% Zin, 22% Petite Syrah, 15% Syrah, 10% Cab, 8% Sangiovese, and 5% Cab Franc. The wine is named after one of the early gold towns of the 1850s. Cask 204 appears to be their way of saying 2004.\u00c2\u00a0 With a lot of 1860 cases, this wine tops at 14.7%.<\/p>\n<p>The color is a deep plum with a slightly clear rim &#8211; it is a 2004 afterall. The nose is vibrant with plum, cherry, and clove. On the palate the cherry and plum grow, the spice is joined with a bit of pepper\u00c2\u00a0with a hint of\u00c2\u00a0red licorice. The finish is nice and spicy with soft tannins.<\/p>\n<p>My first venture into regional wines and I would have to say this one is a winner.\u00c2\u00a0 At only $12 this one begs for repeat purchase.\u00c2\u00a0 There is also a Cask 205 (you guessed it, 2005) with a different blend that sounds promising; haven&#8217;t located that one yet.\u00c2\u00a0 When I got this one, I also picked up a Syrah of theirs so stand by for a future post on that one.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A recent transplant to Northern Nevada, I decided to try something from a regional winery.
