R Collection Field Blend Lot No. 7 2009

 

The Field Blend is a unique wine made from seven varietals, with the core five being Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah, Petite Sirah and Zinfandel. The result is a well balanced, full bodied wine overflowing with tangy raspberry, cherry, blueberry and white pepper.

 

R Collection Field Blend is a balanced, medium-to-full bodied wine with firm, juicy tannins. It draws on Raymond Vineyard’s five generations of family winemaking tradition to appeal to the casual wine drinker with even the most discriminating palate.

 

"The new R Collection Field Blend harkens back to the early days in California viticulture when vineyards often contained several different varietals planted together,” said Jean-Charles Boisset, president of Boisset Family Estates, which owns Raymond Vineyards. “The entire vineyard lot would be harvested and vinified together, often producing remarkably unique wines."
