Mission Codename Rex Es Ata Legis

If you already scooped up today’s Featured Pinot, don’t miss out on Deerfield’s best selling wine and Sonoma OG wine staple Red Rex. Robert Rex has been concocting his eponymous love letter to the art of blending for 20+ years and it never goes out of style.

Robert’s got a unique take on blending that we can really get behind. Winemakers don’t think about different varietals as different flavors, like you might imagine as a chef. Instead it’s all about what kind of tannin, acidity and body each brings to the party. Robert takes it a step further and thinks about where on the palate each varietal sits, and his goal is to make a cozy wine blanket for your tongue. And just like when you’re on the couch with that microfiber fleece and someone thoughtful tucks your feet in, Robert goes the extra mile to make sure your many thousands of taste buds are properly nurtured.

And that we mean, served up with a mixed berry basket of red fruit - raspberry, red currant, and tart cherry. Add a few layers of black licorice, dusty earth, a dusting of dark chocolate, and vanilla into the mix along with a bit of restrained but well-integrated French oak and you get one complete, fully satisfying blend. A surefire crowd pleaser! And a wallet-friendly option, too!

That’s why even though every year is a different blend, every vintage is an absolute banger. And this vintage is absolutely bonkers. Seriously, scroll down and look at that grape roster. And then smash that buy button to find out why these unlikely pairings make for such a great party. At $29 this is going to become your go to bottle when you want a seriously tasty wine that hits all the right notes, but it’s also Tuesday at 4pm.
