WINEMAKER’S NOTES:
This year’s Rivers Red is a great fruity everyday wine to pair with your favorite foods and share with friends. The dominance of Sangiovese creates structure and complexity, while the Malbec, Merlot, Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon provide balance to the wine and add savory notes to this blend. This medium bodied wine is filled with aromas and flavors of strawberry, cherry, raspberry, and finishes with a touch of cedar.
ACCOLADES:
90 Points – “Fresh and inviting, with crisp acidity set against a plush layer of well-formed blueberry and floral flavors, picking up spicy notes as the finish plays out. Sangiovese, Malbec, Merlot, Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon. Drink now through 2018. 6,631 cases made.”
