Rusty Red Reserve is a blend created to reflect the great strength and flavor of Syrah and Zinfandel. A smooth and luscious body of light molasses and cocoa with cherry tannins, a touch of pepper spice and warm vanilla. Named after our remarkable Black Lab, Rusty, who graced us with his strength, character and sweetness for 15 years, it exemplifies the best of these two varietals by drawing out their flavor and unique strengths on the palate. Just the slightest bit off-dry, this is a crowd pleaser, pulling its character from two outstanding vineyards – Hillside Vineyard Zinfandel and the Reid Vineyard Syrah. We love to pair our Rusty Red with Tyler’s Molasses Marinated Steak – juicy and bold like the wine. A recipe is included with every purchase.[show_more more=”Read More” less=”Show Less”]While Rusty may have passed, his memory lives on as the original Woof of the Winery. His younger brother Rhett, has a namesake blend coming soon – keep an eye out for the incredible Rhett’s Red, a fantastic big red blend that we are just delighted to share with you! We produced only 275 cases for this vintage and they’re moving fast, get yours while you can.[/show_more]
