Tembo Thu, Dec 01, 22 Behind the Vine The Vineyard Tembo Pinot Noir is vineyard-sourced from Herringer Vineyards in Clarksburg, California. Pioneers of sustainable agriculture, the Herringer family believes in treating the earth responsibly. Their passions for viticulture and soil science can be seen in the quality and taste of their excellent wines! The TEMBO Project Tembo’s label, featuring an African Gray Elephant, isn’t just eye-catching. Tembo means “elephant” in Swahili, and the brand donates proceeds from the TEMBO project directly to the Tsavo Trust in Tsavo, Kenya. You can feel great drinking this lovely wine, especially knowing the winemakers are giving back to some of the most magnificent creatures on the planet. Product Recommendations - Tembo Pinot Noir Variety: Pinot Noir Region: California Taste: The nose is bright with high toned red fruits, violet candy and toasted bread. The palate is supple with flavors of cranberry jam, red cherries and pie crust. Pairings: Grilled meats, brie, asparagus and other summer veggies. Molly's Staff Thoughts - Emily's Pick “One of our favorite, easy-drinking, summer reds for beating the heat! It is great served chilled for your camping or picnic events. Though it’s super light, Tembo offers flavors of red fruit, ripe fig and a little peppercorn. It is also sustainably and naturally produced!” Find out more about Tembo and their viniculture here.
