Bennington Red

2009 Iowa Red Blend

The Grape Escape Winery Bennington Red, a delightful red blend from Iowa, showcases a captivating deep red hue that invites exploration. This vintage 2009 wine embodies a full-bodied profile, offering a robust and satisfying mouthfeel. The high acidity adds a vibrant liveliness that brightens the palate, while the prominent fruit intensity reveals layers of ripe blackberries and cherries, harmoniously intertwined with hints of spice. The tannins are notably structured, providing a firm backbone without overwhelming the fruit. As a dry red wine, it balances its rich flavors with a complexity that makes it a perfect accompaniment to hearty meals or a cozy evening by the fireplace. Enjoy this charming offering from the heartland, as it artfully captures the essence of its terroir and winemakers' dedication.

From rich and powerful California Zinfandel to spicy Oregon Pinot Noir, and from full-bodied Washington Merlot to aromatic New York Riesling, the wines of the United States are nearly as diverse as its population. People have been making wine in North America from European vitis vinifera vines since the first French settlers arrived in the 1500s. Progress stalled along the way by pests and diseases that the vine had never encountered in its homelands, but today wine is produced in all 50 states. With more than 260 AVAs to discover, each with its unique climate and landscape, wines of the United States have much to offer.
