Red Headed Stepchild

Pennsylvania Red Blend

Juniata Valley Winery's Red Headed Stepchild is an intriguing red blend that wonderfully captures the essence of Pennsylvania's wine-growing region. This wine sports a deep ruby color that entices the eye, suggesting a richness that is reflected in its flavor profile. On the palate, it delivers a round and medium body, offering a satisfying mouthfeel that is complemented by lively acidity. The fruit intensity is prominent, featuring notes of dark cherry and ripe plum, balanced by subtle hints of spice and earthiness that add depth to the experience. With soft tannins that provide structure without overpowering the fruit, this wine is wonderfully approachable and enjoys a dry finish that invites another sip. Perfect for pairing with a variety of dishes, the Red Headed Stepchild showcases the potential of Pennsylvania wines with charm and character.

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.
