Mélange Rouge
Rhône Blend
Wine Notes
Drawing inspiration from the finest cuvées of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, our 2022 Mélange Rouge gracefully blends Grenache, Mourvèdre, and Syrah, weaving together a narrative of tradition inspired by the Old-World, renewed in a modern style at Moon Mountain Vineyard. This vintage showcases the near-equal partnership of Grenache and Mourvèdre, creating a compelling dialogue between Grenache’s bright fruit expression and lively acidity and Mourvèdre’s profound structure and savory complexity. With a nuanced accent of Syrah completing the composition, this blend harmonizes into a captivating expression of Sonoma terroir, promising both immediate pleasure and the capacity to evolve gracefully over the next decade – a testament to the timeless companionship of these noble varieties.
