2021 Santa Ynez Valley Red Blend

And symphonic it is, hitting all registers with equal precision. Deep, ripe blackberry and graphite notes are equally trebled with a perfumed halo of cherry blossoms, cinnamon spice, slate rock and rosemary/violet notes. Full-bodied and rich, yet transparent and supremely elegant with robust tension seamlessly welding together blackberry, black currant, and pretty maraschino cherry notes with gorgeously perfumed florals that resolve with an earthy black tea and graphite flourish in the finish. Spectacular!

Red Blend You Say?

"A red blend is typically not my 'go-to' wine but this blend was very tasty. I tend to go for the lighter reds such as a Pinot or Zinfandel so I found this red blend to be on the lighter side. I would definitely purchase it again."

— Dinah P. (5/5)

Better than average weekday wine

"Santa Ynez valley is a hidden gem in the wine world. The wines are often very good and this one was even better than that. If I compare it to other weekday wines I typically drink, it is in the top 10% or better. I love it! Very smooth with a great balance of fruit and tannins making it an easy drinking and very pleasant wine. By the way, if you like wine tasting, the wineries around Santa Ynez are really fun to visit and wine taste in person. If you are considering this wine, go for it! You won’t be disappointed!"

— Mike S. (4/5)
