2010 New Mexico Red Blend

Vivac Winery Divino, a captivating red blend from the sun-drenched vineyards of New Mexico, showcases the rich potential of this emerging wine region. The 2010 vintage delights with a beautifully deep red color, hinting at the complexity within the bottle. With a medium-bodied profile, this wine offers a harmonious balance of flavors that evolves on the palate. The pronounced acidity introduces a refreshing lift, complementing the vibrant, fruit-forward character of ripe blackberries and cherries, while subtle earthy undertones add depth and intrigue. Tannins are medium, providing a gentle structure without overpowering the luscious fruit, creating an inviting and approachable finish. This delightful red blend is a testament to New Mexico’s growing reputation as a producer of quality wines, making it an excellent choice for any gathering or quiet evening at home.

New Mexico

New Mexico, with its high desert landscapes and dramatic mountain ranges, offers a unique and diverse winegrowing environment in the American Southwest. The state's American Viticultural Areas (AVAs) benefit from the high altitude and the intense sunlight, which together create a significant diurnal temperature variation. This variation sharply cools the vineyards at night, tempering the daytime heat and allowing grapes to ripen slowly and develop complex flavors while retaining essential acids. The arid climate and minimal rainfall reduce the risk of vine diseases and allow vintners to control vine vigor through irrigation. Vineyards at lower elevations tend to produce bolder, more intense wines, while those at higher elevations excel in growing cooler-climate varieties, yielding more delicate and aromatic wines.
