About the wine
Tom's top-notch red blend is a smooth, easy-sipping crowdpleaser
- Tom's Angel-favorite red returns! This delectable red perfectly captures the bold flavors of California and brings them to you with a scrumptious, easy-sipping smoothness that's ideal for savoring any night of the week.
- With your support, Tom crafted this latest vintage with powerfully fruity Syrah, deep, inky Tannat, luscious, juicy Merlot and decadent Cabernet, masterfully blending them into this Shula signature red that you're bound to love.
- This wine loves delicious company. Throw down some teriyaki chicken wings – or any grilled meats and veggies with a little char, gather a few friends to share it with and you're golden!
Best before
This wine is ready to enjoy as soon as it reaches your table, and with proper storage, it will continue to be delicious for 2-4 years.
Serving advice
As with most young reds, this wine will benefit from some aeration. Try to open your bottle at least 30 minutes before serving, and pour a little into a glass. "Swirl and sniff every 10 minutes or so," Tom says. "You'll know when to taste!"
Food match
Tom's favorite pairing for this red is pasta with a rich bolognese sauce and a sprinkling of chili flakes. It also makes a great pairing with a variety of foods including grilled or roast meats, charcuterie and medium sharp cheeses.
