2005 Grand Oz It was our Grandfather – “Grand Oz” - who introduced our family to grape-growing and wine. A longtime farmer, HA Oswald, Jr. grew some of Mendocino County’s best grapes at the family vineyard and produced some of the region’s finest wines. While every bottle of Husch carries his name we thought it fitting that this exclusive wine be named in his honor. This Grand Oz is a Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah blend – using the best fruit from HA Oswald’s home ranch combined with the best barrels in the winery. With only two barrels produced (528 bottles) this wine was nurtured from vineyard to bottle with extreme pride and care. Each bottle of Grand Oz was hand numbered, wax sealed and signed by third generation family owners, Zac Robinson and Amanda Holstine. Firm, bold and full of flavor, this inky dark wine is a powerhouse. The muscular Cabernet Sauvignon fruit brings rich cassis, violet, roasted red pepper and a dusty earthiness to the blend while the elegant Syrah contributes blueberry and a subtle hint of spicy tobacco. These aromas continue on in the flavor and are accompanied by cherry, cedar, allspice and vanilla. The berry and cedar finish is long and satisfying. This wine is enjoyable now yet the ample tannins are built for long term aging. Enjoy with a well marbled steak or rack of lamb.
