CUPCAKE VINEYARDS RED VELVET

A deliciously rich blend of Zinfandel, Merlot, and Petite

Sirah, our Red Velvet blend delivers over-the-top aromas of

chocolate, deep dark blackberries and luscious red fruits that

follow through to the palate, finishing with a hint of coconut

and creamy mocha.

Each varietal adds distinct characteristics that lends structure,

aroma and depth of flavor. Specifically, the Zinfandel lends

ripe red fruit and jammy strawberry, the Merlot contributes

blueberry compote with hints of chocolate, lending silky

tannins while the Petite Sirah is the backbone, enhancing

the color and texture of the wine. We ferment each varietal

separately before blending. Finally we age the entire blend on

a unique oak regime which builds the texture and contributes

to the delicious creaminess.

This wine is very versatile and pairs nicely with a BLT, chili,

or chocolate cake.
