Tariff Buster Blend
Tasting Notes
This blend opens with bright red berries, plum, and hints of wild herbs, layered over subtle notes of
cedar and spice. On the palate, it’s medium-to-full bodied with supple tannins, lively acidity, and a
balance of juicy fruit and earthy depth. The finish lingers with touches of blackberry, leather, and
dried thyme, showcasing both vibrancy and complexity.
Winemaking
This wine is a true “kitchen sink” blend — seven wines from three vintages (2020–2022) coming
together in one harmonious, crowd-pleasing red. Crafted with care and barrel-aged in mostly neutral
French oak, it delivers quality far beyond its price tag. In a time when everything seems to cost more,
we wanted to offer a little relief — a well-made, affordable wine that keeps the joy in your glass and
the “elixir of life” within reach.
Food Pairing
This blend’s juicy fruit and savory edge pair surprisingly well with a Shake Shake Shake Mushroom
Swiss burger, the wine’s acidity cuts right through the melted cheese and sauce. The earthy notes
complement a slice of pepperoni pizza from Salomone’s Pizza. For something fun, try it with a Red
Star Carne Asada taco, the spiced meat and toasty tortilla amplify the wine’s warmth and spice
beautifully.
