Wattle Creek Butterfly California Red
Sensuous
As SENSUOUS as Eartha Kitt, these mid-weight reds are ripe enough to offer plump fruit flavor but not heavy or tannic. The category includes most Merlots and our softer red blends, but also the ripest Pinot Noirs and the lightest Cabernets. These crowd-pleasing reds are thoroughly modern.
Red Blend & Meritage
SKU: WCREBTNV72
Aromas of candied fruit lead into layered notes of bright cherry, cranberry, and a touch of plum. This red wine offers a hint of sweetness with a smooth finish. Enjoy it slightly chilled on its own, paired with barbeque ribs with a sweet and tangy sauce, grilled portobello mushrooms, or aged cheddar cheese.
This expressive California Red Wine, primarily crafted from Zinfandel, is semi-sweet in style, offering a lush and approachable profile. It opens with enticing aromas of sun-ripened blackcurrant, wild sage, and hints of mocha-dusted blackberry. The palate is layered with rich flavors of dark cherry, plum compote, and subtle notes of toasted vanilla and graphite. Full-bodied and polished, it boasts firm yet velvety tannins and a long, resonant finish, making it an ideal red for those who enjoy bold fruit with a softer, sweeter edge.
At Wattle Creek, we are committed to crafting distinctive wines that showcase unique terroirs through socially and environmentally responsible practices. We embrace sustainable viticulture and employ minimally invasive winemaking techniques. The grapes were thoughtfully selected from sunny, primarily sustainably farmed vineyards throughout California.
This wine pairs beautifully with BBQ classics like ribs and pulled pork, where its rich fruit and subtle sweetness complement smoky, savory flavors. It also shines alongside roasted and grilled meats, and makes a decadent match for dark chocolate desserts, enhancing both the savory depth and sweet finish of any meal.
