ABOUT THE WINE

Sourced from organically and biodynamically farmed vineyards in Paso Robles, “Farmhouse Red” is typically a Rhône-inspired blend, often led by Grenache and Syrah with supporting varieties depending on the vintage. The 2023 vintage delivers juicy raspberry, black cherry, and plum flavors accented by hints of garrigue, cocoa, and subtle smokiness.

Fermented with native yeasts and crafted with minimal intervention, the wine reflects Villa Creek’s commitment to authenticity and site expression. Aging occurs primarily in neutral oak barrels to preserve purity of fruit while integrating structure and complexity. The result is a balanced, approachable red with both depth and drinkability.

Versatile and food-friendly, it pairs beautifully with grilled meats, roasted vegetables, hearty stews, and wood-fired pizza. Its lively fruit and savory undertones make it equally suited to casual gatherings and relaxed weeknight dinners.
