The Ridge Geyserville Red 2014 is a complex red wine that shows an excellent blend of varietal flavors. The wine is a deep violet in the glass, and aromas of blackberry jam, candied plums, gravel, spearmint, sweet oak, and tropical flowers waft to the nose. The palate is refreshing, with intriguing notes of brambles and fruit. Undertones of mint, gravel, and earth complement an energetic acidity. The finish is persistent, encouraging a second sip.

This red wine blend is robust enough to stand up to rich or spicy dishes. Consider pairing it with barbecue or hearty casseroles.
