Deerfield Ranch 2012 Red Rex

Deerfield Ranch 2012 Red Rex

Mission Codename The Return of the Rex

The King returns today, with our debut of the Ultra QPR (Quality to Price Ratio) Deerfield Ranch Winery 2012 Red Rex.

This budget minded red blend is the best that we’ve seen from this Wine Spies favorite winery. At 25% off, this very highly recommended wine is expected to sell out… so please don’t dally!

On the nose, this wine is sweet and aromatic, with balanced aromas of Bing cherry, blackberry, blueberry jam, sweet spice, sweet tobacco leaf, cherry candy and a hint of cracked pepper.

On the palate, flavors are bold and balanced, with juicy blackberry, blueberry, black cherry, sweet spice, cedar, tart cherry, cassis and a hint of white pepper.

Winemaker Robert Rex shows off his considerable experience with this wonderful kitchen sink blend of 26% Merlot, 19% Syrah, 15% Sangiovese, 12% Malbec, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Cabernet Franc, 6% Petit Verdot and 5% Zinfandel.

Each of these component parts works in balance with the others. On the nose, you’ll find yourself inhaling this wine over and over again, before you ever take your first sip. On the palate, bold, juicy flavors are tempered by earth, minerals, and spice.

Today’s 2012 Red Rex is another gem in the succession that is red blend perfection from our dear friends at Deerfield, a winery that we have come to love and admire over these many years.
