Description:
Red Barn Red is a once-in-awhile release of first quality wine that didn't
quite fit into our blend and too nice for us to let go. This version is primarily syrah, lively with its rich garnet color. Ripe dark cherry punctuated by blackberry, plum and a full measure of French oak, makes it a fun red table wine. RBR complements full flavored fare including grilled meats, sausages or vegetables, spicy pasta dishes, and other robust flavors
such as rosemary, thyme, and mint, and cheeses such as parmesan and feta. Salut!

Varietal Definition
Syrah:
Syrah is the eight hundred pound gorilla of Rhone grapes! In the vineyard and the winery, Syrah is typically an easy grape to work with - healthy, early ripening, resistant to mildew and rot; suitable for winemaking in a variety of styles. The wines from Syrah are tannic without being harsh. The wines will have a taste and smell of dark blue fruit like blackberries and blackcurrant, with a strong spicy side where one can find freshly ground pepper and other spices. Syrah is famous for its part in the French blends, such as Côtes du Rhone and Châteauneuf du Pape.
