The Red Blend wine presents a deep, ruby-red hue with hints of garnet at the edges, indicating its youth and promise with subtle hints of wild berries and a touch of spice from the Zinfandel complement the rich fruitiness. The wine is full-bodied and plush, with velvety tannins that provide structure without overpowering the palate. Flavors of black cherries and plum mingle with dark chocolate and a touch of espresso, showcasing the depth contributed by the Petite Sirah. The blend is harmonious, with each varietal contributing its unique characteristics while achieving a seamless integration. The finish is long and satisfying, leaving lingering notes of black fruit and a hint of spice.

Our Howell Mountain Red Wine Blend is a testament to the estate's terroir and craftsmanship. It offers both power and elegance, with a depth of flavors that evolve beautifully in the glass. Enjoyable now for its youthful exuberance, yet promising further complexity with age. Perfect for pairing with hearty dishes like grilled steaks or aged cheeses, or simply savoring on its own to appreciate its full spectrum of flavors.
