About This Wine


To Whom

Red Blend

The North Coast region of California is cool and the wines from the region have trademark flavors because of the unique growing conditions. The grapes are subjected to the cool fogs and winds that blow up off of the Pacific and into the vineyards. The To Whom Red Blend is an elegant expression of a North Coast red. The harmony of dark cherry, vanilla, and raspberry that play off of licorice and chocolate make every sip a delight. This is the kind of wine that we like to settle into and really savor. The flavors are only enhanced by food pairings. To Whom is fantastic with anything incorporating sweet peppers, caramelized onions, and mushrooms. We’d also recommend trying this wine with a cheese board, as it will shine with blue cheese. Judges love it too! It took home 91 Points and a Gold at the 2019 San Diego International Wine & Spirits Challenge, and a Silver medal at the 2019 West Coast Wine Competition and the North of the Gate Wine Competition!

Wine Region


North Coast

The North Coast AVA is a vast "super region" covering three million acres of prime land north of San Francisco. It encompasses the famous wine counties of Napa, Sonoma and Mendocino, as well as Lake, Marin and Solano. While most wines from these counties are made under one of the prestigious regional AVAs, winemakers can also blend grapes from different counties. In this way, they create wines that show off the quality of the entire region and are not limited to specific terroirs. Common varieties include Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Merlot, Sauvignon Blanc and Zinfandel.

This wine is properly integrated with beautiful notes of dark cherry, vanilla, and raspberry that dance around notes of chocolate and licorice. We have loved it with savory foods that really bring out the fruit flavors.
