Vinum 2014 Red Blend

The Vinum 2014 ‘Red Dirt Red’ Rhône Blend is comprised of 55% Syrah, 24% Grenache, and 21% Mourvèdre from the Paso Robles appellation on California’s Central Coast. Medium plum in color, the 2014 Red Dirt Red is complex and layered with spicy aromas and flavors. Upon entry, this wine has dark, dry cherry notes and is backed with toasted, charred oak nuances which transition seamlessly to a silky leather texture that is wrapped in black cherry flavors. The Red Dirt Red finishes with spice rack flavors of cinnamon, clove, and cardamom. Each varietal contributes its unique character to this Rhône-style blend; the Syrah is very juicy and supple with a silky texture; the Mourvèdre is responsible for the earthy notes; and the spicy pepper notes are thanks to the Grenache.
