A deeply personal endeavor for Darioush Khaledi, Pedar—meaning “father” in Farsi—is a heartfelt tribute to his own. This naturally crafted, 100% estate-grown Shiraz reflects the purity and simplicity of the winemaking techniques Darioush first observed as a child. Richly saturated and layered with spice and intrigue, Pedar is more than a wine—it is a celebration of legacy and a testament to the joy found in doing what one loves.
The soft floral notes carry across the palate and are complemented by delicious blackberry and plum flavors with stewed strawberries and hints of pie spice. Classic, savory varietal notes of olive tapenade and smoked pancetta create harmony on the mouthfeel, while intriguing hints of fennel pollen, dried herbs, and white pepper punctuate the long finish.
