The 2024 Code Three Red Wine Blend is a vibrant Rhône-style blend that showcases expressive fruit, balanced structure, and exceptional drinkability. Aromas of ripe blackberry, raspberry, and Bing cherry are layered with hints of cracked black pepper, dried herbs, and subtle floral notes. Gentle touches of vanilla, toasted oak, and baking spice add warmth and complexity to the bouquet.
On the palate, lush red and dark berry flavors lead the way, supported by juicy plum and black cherry. Notes of cocoa, savory herbs, and a touch of leather emerge through the mid-palate, while well-integrated oak contributes hints of mocha and sweet spice. Silky tannins and bright acidity create a smooth, balanced mouthfeel that is both rich and approachable.
The finish is long and elegant, lingering with dark fruit, warm baking spices, and a whisper of smoky earth.
