Product description
Charles & Charles Double Trouble is a bold red blend from the Columbia Valley in Washington, United States. The winery is a collaboration established in 2008 between two iconic figures: Charles Smith, a self-taught winemaker known for his rock-and-roll approach, and Charles Bieler, an early champion of American rosé. Their winemaking philosophy focuses on minimal intervention and sustainable farming, aiming to express the unique power and complexity of Washington's high-latitude vineyards.
Wine Description
This wine presents a deep ruby appearance with purple edges. The nose is fruit-forward and complex, offering aromas of black cherry, blackberry, and plum interlaced with savory notes of white pepper, black licorice, and hints of smoked meat. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, featuring lively flavors of raspberry, espresso, and brambly berry anchored by firm yet balanced tannins. The finish is long and energetic, building with subtle floral notes and spices.
Food Pairing
The savory, meaty profile and bold structure of this Syrah-dominant blend make it an ideal companion for grilled meats, BBQ ribs, or hearty beef stews. It also pairs excellently with lamb dishes or rich pasta with red sauce.
