Idlewild 'The Bird' Red Blend 2021

In Italy, the house wine is often light, fresh, aromatic, and firmly structured so as to pair beautifully next to a wide range of foods. That is the inspiration for The Bird. Black cherries, wild strawberries, dried herbs, roses, fresh soil, and a touch of orange peel make up the aromatic profile. The mouth feel is a joyful inter-play of brightness with just enough chewy bass notes before the seriousness kicks in with a firm acid and tannin balance on the finish.
