The wine that started it all — and still leads the portfolio.
The Living Desert Red is built for important occasions and exceptional food. Ideal alongside grilled ribeye, braised short ribs cooked in the wine itself, rack of lamb with a blackberry glaze, wood-fired pizza and aged cheeses. An outstanding gift — a bottle that communicates quality and thoughtfulness to anyone who receives it.
