El Pecado is the latest launch from Halter Ranch and it's an aptly named decadent dessert wine that's named for its sinfully indulgent taste. This dessert blend features 78% Tannat and 22% Grenache, plus a delicate infusion of hand-roasted coffee beans and cacao nibs. El Pecado is said to have aromas of berry compote, hazelnut, molasses, mocha and roasted coffee, and it naturally pairs well with all sorts of coffee and chocolate treats.
Halter Ranch describes the experience of El Pecado as having an opening that's sweet, soft and driven by red fruit, which then gives way to a rich midpalate, then a soft yet structured finish. Just 341 cases of this vintage were produced, making it a limited-time offering that will be savored by a select few.
