Intrinsic Red Blend is a captivating wine produced by Intrinsic Wine Co., a winery known for its innovative approach to winemaking. This red blend is crafted from a combination of grape varietals, predominantly featuring Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, sourced from the Columbia Valley in Washington State. The growing season showcases the region's unique terroir, characterized by warm days and cool nights, which contribute to the wine's balanced acidity and ripe fruit flavors. The winemaking process involves extended maceration to enhance color and flavor extraction, followed by aging in a mix of French and American oak barrels, imparting subtle notes of vanilla and spice. The wine exhibits a rich flavor profile with dark fruit notes of blackberry and plum, complemented by hints of chocolate and a smooth tannin structure. It pairs beautifully with grilled meats, hearty stews, and aged cheeses.
