22FARSIDEOFTHEMOON
Our Far Side of the Moon blend is a special commemorative wine in celebration of the April 8, 2024 total eclipse. This blend is the “dark” side of our “Over the Moon Rosé,” meaning it is the same wine, varietally, but made as a red wine instead of a rosé.

Tasting Notes
This wine has lovely notes of strawberries, red cherries, and cocoa. It’s a medium-bodied wine with medium-minus tannins while being fairly juicy on the palate. This was blended with chilling in mind, so feel free to serve with a slight chill on those hot Texas nights.
Drink now through 2029.
