2022 Carolus XII
For maximum enjoyment - We strongly suggest serving this one-of-a-kind wine in the largest wine glass you have. This allows the wine to breathe and opens the aromatics to the nose giving you a burst of dark fruits.
CAROLUS is our premier wine offering. The name and the wine pays homage to our great state of North Carolina, where we are based. The Carolinas were named to honor King Charles IX of France, King Charles I & King Charles II of England. The Latin name for Charles is Carolus and thus the name given to the Carolinas. The XII signifies that North Carolina was the 12th colony to join of the original 13 colonies of what became this great country.
