About This Wine


Wyethia Flame

Red Blend

Blossoming flavors of concentrated sweet red fruit and cocoa make our Wyethia Red Blend one to savor. This Merlot-driven blend is delectably balanced and approachable. The soils in Lodi, California, hold the key to desirable ripeness levels in the vineyard come harvest time. In many areas, the ground beneath the vine's canopy is covered in large rocks. These rocks gather heat throughout the day as the sun bakes this warm Mediterranean region. When day turns to dusk and cool temperatures move in, these rocks continue to radiate heat onto the fruit from below, allowing it to ripen into the night. For you, that means a wine with delectable red fruit, relaxed acidity, and silky smooth tannins. Our Red Blend is an effortless way to please all palates when shared with friends and family. Serve this wine at room temperature paired with sweet and smokey BBQ and chargrilled vegetables. Scroll through the image carousel above to learn more about this wine.

Wine Region


Lodi

The jewel of the Central Valley, Lodi lies just east of the California Delta in an area of varied terroir. Winemakers here can extract different grape variety expressions from each plot of land. Zinfandel is common here, making deeply fruity and tantalizingly smoky wines, often from old vines. But the deep loamy soils and balmy Mediterranean climate, with its warm days and cool nights, help keep Lodi's grape varieties and winemaking styles impressively diverse. Alongside the ubiquitous Zinfandel, Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Merlot and Viognier also thrive. Lodi is a melting pot of different grape varieties and winemaking techniques, all of which make it a rewarding region to explore.
