Description
Skyside Red Blend
Recognized as an American pioneer of unfiltered wines since 1977, Newton Vineyard is dedicated to working in harmony with nature to produce remarkable artisan wines, Newton Vineyard transforms fruit of uncompromised quality into wines of distinctive character.
We believe blending starts in the vineyard. Our goal is to select the best grapes from several diverse areas within the region, allowing us to craft a wine that is vibrant, balanced and complex. We source our fruit from the 5 counties that make up the North Coast appellation including Mendocino, Sonoma, Lake, Solano & Napa Counties. Mendocino and Sonoma help shape the blend offering a darker fruit profile, an elegant floral lift with spice notes woven into the aromatics, strong tannins and good acidity. Lake, Solano and Napa bring a riper fruit profile that helps to lift the aromatics, fill out the mid-palate, and enhances overall concentration. These 5 regions blend well together, creating a nuanced blend that demonstrates the diverse regions within the North Coast.
Vintage may vary.
TASTING NOTES
This wine invites with aromas of red currant, plum and blackberry fruit followed by warm baking spices, cocoa and mountain sage. The wine enters smooth and fills the mid-palate mingling with the flavors of fruit, spice, subtle oak and chocolate. The tannins and acidity meet gracefully extending into a lingering finish.
