Wine maker notes

On July 11, 1804 off the Hudson shore at Weehawken, the original Federalist, Alexander Hamilton was shot in a duel by Aaron Burr and died from his injuries. Since dueling is no longer socially acceptable, we suggest solving differences over a glass of this “dual” of zinfandel and syrah.

Technical notes

50% syrah; 50% zinfandel

Food pairing

Grilled and roasted meats, BBQ, pizza
