DESCRIPTION
Red Mountain is renowned for its red wines and our 10,000 Hours 2018 Red Blend lives up to its heritage. Sit back and savor the aromas of raspberry, mocha, and clove. Hold on for the dense fruit and baking spices mid-palate. Stay for the toasty vanilla finish. After all the hours that went into making this wine, it's rewarding to linger equally over its sipping.
