They say that he can control the wind and summon creatures from the beyond, and that his howls can make even the bravest warrior tremble with fear. Some say he is a vengeful spirit seeking revenge for past wrongs, while others believe he is a protector of the forest, warding off those who would harm its delicate balance. Whatever the case may be, Banshee Mordecai Red remains a fascinating enigma, captivating and terrifying in equal measure.

Tasting Notes

An enticing nose of pepper, violets, cigar and cassis. On the palate it is a mouthwatering mélange of red berry and plum flavors backed by earthy tones of herb roasted meat and fresh black trumpet giving way to a spice laden finish.

About the Winery

Banshee

The history and story of Banshee started when three friends hailing from the East and Midwest Coast of The United States of America came together to realise a common dream. The three shared an equal passion and love for wine and aspired to set up their distinct winery.

Thus, the friends pooled their money and borrowed some from their family and friends to bring about the initial traces of Banshee in the form of its wines. They sold the winery’s first vintage, the Pinot Noir wines, at a bar in the neighbourhood and locality of Dogpatch in San Francisco. They prepared and sold eight barrels of wine with grapes from the renowned Sonoma Coast. It resulted in their products getting sold out in a mere three months. Since the friends understood people’s love for superior wine, they wished to make top-class drinks but price them appropriately so that numerous people could afford and enjoy them.

With the fame of the initial Banshee wines, the winery shifted to the small yet bustling Healdsburg town in the heart and middle of Sonoma County. Here, the three friends realised that it is impossible to produce excellent wines without superior terroirs and vineyards. Thus, they developed intricate relationships with the region’s grapevine growers and parcel owners to acquire the best plots of land. It allowed the winery to get the Sullivan Vineyard, Thorn Ridge Vineyard, Middleridge Ranch Vineyard, and Rice-Spivak Vineyard.

Banshee aims to produce wines possessing superior balance, depth, and purity. The winery wishes to market drinks with intense deliciousness and complexity but at an affordable price. It gets aided in its purpose by the excellent vineyards it owns that provide optimum conditions of elevation, soil type, oceanic influence, rainfall, and sunlight exposure. They allow the harvested grapes to be of high quality.
