Nope, not that sad little candy bar at the bottom of the trick-or-treat bag — I’m talking 94 POINTS of single-vineyard Alexander Valley swagger from an old-school Sonoma family, poured out just in time for America’s 250th birthday, all for UNDER $20!!!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHappy FOURTH OF JULY, Last Bottlers!!! That’s right — it’s Saturday, the grill is hot, the cooler is stocked, and America is turning a whopping 250 YEARS OLD today. Two. Hundred. And. Fifty. That’s older than baseball, older than sliced bread, and just slightly older than some of California's oldest vines. Back in 1776, John Adams predicted this day would forever be marked with parades, bonfires, and illuminations from one end of the continent to the other — he just didn’t know we’d ALSO be marking it with a 94 POINT, single-vineyard Sonoma Bordeaux blend for UNDER $20. Close enough, John, close enough.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTRIONE is back to help you celebrate in style. Remember GEYSER PEAK? Yep, that was theirs. Three generations, over 50 years of farming and winemaking experience, and 600 acres of vineyards spread across Sonoma County — now led by Denise Trione-Hicks, with husband Kris Hicks running the vines. Henry’s Red Blend is one of the family’s stalwarts, sourced from a mere five acres on the storied Geyserville Ranch, and this 2019 vintage scored a sky-high 94 POINTS, with Wine Enthusiast calling it “nicely balanced, rounded and complete” and James Suckling praising its “smooth and juicy” layers of fruit. I couldn’t agree more — or at least with whatever’s left of my brain after planning a holiday BBQ AND a flash sale on the same day.\u003cbr\u003eThis 35% Cabernet Sauvignon, 34% Merlot, 13% Petit Verdot, 13% Cabernet Franc, and 5% Malbec blend is an absolute STUNNER — TONS of red fruits, from cherries, to raspberries, and red currants, with some plum, and a perfectly judged balance of oak spice and cool brightness. Cardamom, and star anise, with nutmeg, plus a warm, terracotta clay, and cola-infusion that carries this to a satisfying finish! This is the kind of red that can stand toe-to-toe with smoky ribs, charred corn, and whatever else is coming off your grill today — Smashburger with green chile jam and pepperjack, anyone?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUNDER $20 for a 94 POINT, single-vineyard Bordeaux-style blend from one of Sonoma's most storied wine families is the kind of deal that deserves its OWN fireworks display — just, you know, maybe let the pros handle the actual ones this year. The hills are dry, the wine is delicious, and THIS is the only straight fire item that needs to pop off tonight! If you scored this once, you already know — now it is time to load up again with all that we have left! Make ‘Merica proud, friends.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHappy 4th, Last Bottlers — here’s to the next 250!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Last Bottle Wines","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53994497212700,"sku":"1013830","price":19.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0763\/5091\/4844\/files\/1013830_LB_BottleShot.jpg?v=1774886910","url":"https:\/\/lastbottlewines.com\/products\/trione-vineyards-henrys-red-blend-geyserville-ranch-alexander-valley-2019","provider":"Last Bottle Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
