From the owner and winemaker of Bravium Eines, Derek Rohlffs, Outlier is his project to highlight undiscovered, primarily organic sites within CA. The cool weather of the site featured promotes the use of neutral oak, so the fresh organic fruit is highlighted and allowed to shine through. This wine has flavors of red and black fruit is at the forefront on the lushly-textured black cherry, with dusty tannins and uplifting acidity add depth and freshness.

Made from a selection of Nero d’Avola grapes cultivated on the high hills. It expresses the primary aromas, without excess from the ripening process, it is distinguished by the variety from the warmest parts of Sicily. Dierent age barriques provide soft and elegant tannins, with subtle hints of wood. Its name comes from the Sicilian word for love, “L’ Amore”, the same love that Tasca d’Almerita puts into its work. Rich floral and fruit aromas come off the nose of this wine, with black cherry, violets and rose petals plus stony notes of pavement and crushed rock.

Pork Belly Burnt Ends, DD214 Smokehouse
​
​
This wine reminds me of the elegance of the old world. Initially there are some bold fruit notes of raspberry, blueberry, cranberry, which then flow towards figs and plums. Next to the fruit is a black truffle note with just a touch of spice that complements some forest floor earthiness. The oak is very nicely integrated with the wine and offers some vanilla, cocoa, and graphite nuances. The mouthfeel is expressive with firm tannins and a fruit forward finish.
