Our latest bottling is perhaps one of the most complex and satisfying Blues Cuvee blends we have released to date. This year we added two new varietals to the blend, Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon, in addition to the Malbec and Grenache we introduced in our 2004 bottling.

This medium-bodied wine has a beautiful ruby color. The heady aromas are a complex mix of herbs, currants, olives, sandalwood, and berries. On the palate, the wine opens up to reveal rich flavors of berries and black walnuts with a hint of sweet vanillin. It has fine, delicate tannins which will be resolved with one to two years of additional bottle aging.

Serve with hearty meals such as pork roast, prime rib or grilled meats and vegetables.
