Wax On, Wax Soif Red 2019

Maloof

$26.95 Sale • Save

“Light bodied red for your late summer blues. Bright and fresh, full of wild raspberries and white pepper. This is the sole red wine we make, and we still managed to throw 15% white fruit in it.” “This is a little crazy, but this was actually our last pick of the year. The cooler Steelhead run site really bumps out the hang time of Syrah, giving it pretty crazy flavor development capabilities.” “Co-fermented for only 7 days on the skins, with sparing punchdowns before being pressed off. Primary fermentation finished in stainless steel and then moved into neutral french oak barrels. Drink with Margherita pizza, doiiiii.” — Ross + Bee Maloof, Maloof Wines

The Producer

About Maloof

Meet Ross Maloof and Bee Selman, a dynamic duo embodying the perfect balance of yin and yang. Ross, a materials engineer steeped in hard science, and Bee, a restaurant professional with a finely tuned sensory approach, converge as two passionate nerds driven by their love for hospitality and impeccably fermented pizza dough. Ross Maloof's foray into winemaking began unexpectedly during a visit to Oregon, where he found himself interning in the Willamette Valley during harvest. Prior to this, he honed his craft in the Philadelphia dining scene for over a decade, notably serving as the beverage director and general manager for Vedge Restaurant group. Gradually becoming bi-coastal, Ross dedicated more time to winemaking, culminating in his inaugural vintage in 2015.
