Libido Artist Series 2019
For the 2019 Artist Series Collection, artist Debi Garcia-Benson has captured the spirit of Spain in our newest limited edition Artist Series, “Vigneto.”
The wind raced through the vines and threatened to tear the new buds away. “Tranquila Por Favor,” the cellarmaster pleaded with the wind. After a few moments it mellowed and the old man doffed his cap to the sun. “Muchas Gracias Mi Amigo,” he said in a reverent tone, giving the vines one last glance of approval as he trod up the hill to his home.

Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
Dark and brooding in color, this new Artist Series Libido wows the senses from first sight. Taking in the intense aromas of this powerful wine, captivating notes of sweet vanilla oak, raspberry jam, and bacon give hints as to the wonderful savory character of this special blend. On the palate, this rich and full-bodied wine displays more savory notes, redolent of smoked meats, and game. This is softened and enhanced by hints of blueberry pie rounding into a plush and ripe tannin that carries the finish long after the wine has gone.
Winemaker Notes
Since its first release, this wine more than any is highly anticipated and this vintage of our delicious Spanish blend returns to its roots. Anchored by masculine spicy Tempranillo and tempered by seductively fragrant Garnacha. Blends such as Libido are a staple in the Rioja of Spain.
Food Pairing Notes
A perfect choice for the fantastic grilled and marinated lamb loin at the Bolero Restaurante!
