Description:
Of the three “sweeter” wines we produce, our Blush carries a mid-balance of color, tannin and sweetness. By adding a small amount of red wine to the blend (which creates its blush color), our Blush wine also enhances our sweet wine program, similar to that of our Riesling. Adding the red wine creates a blend that has a sweet, lush mouthfeel and retains the notion of being very light-bodied. The base of our Blush blend consists of an extremely soft and fragrant sweet wine, that displays a higher viscosity, or silkier, mouthfeel. In order to broaden its flavor profile, we blend a small amount (in the range of 2% to 4%) of red wine to add variability, longevity and stability to the wine. The natural occurring tannins in the red wine we use gives our Blush wine a flavor structure that makes it more food friendly, and softens an overbearing sweetness. The result is a fun and floral wine with bright tropical flavors of pineapple, watermelon and strawberry. Compared to our Halbtrocken, our Blush wine carries a slightly sweeter and more viscous mouthfeel, which lends wonderfully to BBQ’s, spicy foods (especially Thai cuisine) and afternoons on the porch.
