The Tillerman steers the back of the Hook & Ladder truck, a position our founder, Cecil, held for many years in San Francisco. Tillerman, the wine, is deep red-violet in color, possessing complex aromas of black stone fruit with hints of cinnamon and dry herbs. On the palate flavors of cherries and cassis are followed by a lingering currant and ripe cranberry finish, allowing this blend to show well through rich meals, yet not overpower lighter dishes.
