Our medium weight everyday drinker. The nose has sweet notes of vanilla, plum, and leather. Flavors of cherry candy, black tea, and dried cranberries. The finish is dense dark fruit with a hint of savory herbs. Satisfying, versatile and delicious.
So, what's behind the name "Barbed Wire"? Well, some of the grapes used in this wine grow along the property line. While we've tried hard to train these vines onto the trellis, some of them just don't want to behave. They insist upon growing along the barbed wire fence. Thus was born the tag line for our Barbed Wire Red: "Wine with Attitude"!
