Gen Red Central Coast Red Blend

The 2021 Gen Red is a fun red blend. Dark red fruit, menthol, spice and soaring aromatics all run through this perfumed, supple red. The 2021 is a charmer. $24.00 (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, November 2023)

The wine shows a medium dark ruby color in the glass. The nose sports blackberry, black cherry, earth, spices and coffee grounds. On the palate, the full mouthfeel is abetted by a wonderful freshness and firm tannins. The finish is long. I used a portion of the bottle to bring another dimension to my red beans. The wine added such a layer of complexity to the dish - I don't know how people manage to cook without wine. Even if it never makes it into the food.

Fruit forward, big blue and black berries. With a healthy dose of green bell pepper and fresh herb. Soft tannin. Very Napa-esq.

Brambles leather chocolate and touch of vegetation med plus alc med plus finish. Impressive for the blend.

Nice light red wine. Good blend. Very fruit forward tapering off with a nice finish.

Nice and easy flowing. I got this one because I miss eating and having there wine. Damn this COVId!!!

Different #! Good blend

Very fruit forward, definitely needs to breath before drinking. The fruit flavors r well balanced, personally I don’t think I can drink two glasses of it.

Boring

Dark red color. Aromas of fresh herbs (sage mostly), blueberries and blackberries. Delicious fruit-forward wine with an amazing dry finish.
