Shop/Wine Critic Review: “Red Blend is their winemaker’s signature cuvee, an
expression of five red varieties capturing the best of each vintage. It has the backbone
of Cabernet Sauvignon, the finesse of Merlot, the structure of Petit Verdot, the floral
essence of Cabernet Franc and the boldness of Malbec. This full-bodied wine offers
flavors of black cherries and plums and ends in a soft, balanced finish.” - Vintage Cellar
My Review: Yet again, I really enjoyed this red which isn’t typical for me. It was jam-packed with great flavors of blackberries, jam, tobacco, and a subtle earthiness. The blend of different grapes definitely created a nice flavor that is quite unique! I did not drink this with food. expression of five red varieties capturing the best of each vintage.
