About
Our 2018 Vision Red Blend is a Rhône-style red blend borne of our Winemaker Sean Hails’ goal to create a blend with stand-out color, flavor and finish. For the 2018, Sean brought together three classic Rhône varieties: Syrah, Grenache and Mourvèdre. Vision brims with generous aromas of fresh-picked dark plum and tangy red cranberry with a unique hint of pepper spice from the Mourvèdre. Notes of ripe red and dark fruits reminiscent of cherry pie filling linger on the palate and mingle with hints of chocolate. Vision finishes with soft tannins and luscious, lengthy hints of fruit and spice that is richly satisfying.

Composed of 53% Syrah, 30% Grenache and 17% Mourvèdre, the 2018 Vision opens with notions of vanilla, coconut, blackberry skin and dusty plums. Medium to full-bodied, the mouthfeel is fun and approachable in youth, delivering a balanced expression with succulent tannins. The lingering finish offers lasting flavors of dried herbs and juicy black and dark red fruit tones. The wine rested for 16 months in a mix of 68% French oak, 18% American oak and 14% Hungarian oak. Just under 1,100 bottles were filled.
