The Story: The Craft of Value
Patience is a virtue, especially in winemaking. While many everyday reds are rushed to the shelf, we gave our Guardian Red Blend 2024 the gift of time: a full 18 months maturing in oak barrels. This dedication is how we build layers of flavour and a smooth, rounded texture that is rarely seen at this price.
This wine is a testament to smart sourcing and the craft of blending. It’s built to be the reliable bottle you can open with confidence any night of the week, knowing you’re getting a wine that truly over-delivers.
The Guardian Principle: Affordable Quality
The Guardian stands for a simple principle: protecting you from overpaying for quality. It’s the cornerstone of our Vinty’s Variety collection and embodies our commitment to bringing you wines that taste more expensive than they are. We believe complexity and character shouldn’t be reserved for a special occasion.
What’s in the Bottle?
The oak maturation has beautifully softened the wine, weaving spice and structure into the vibrant fruit core.
- On the nose: A welcoming aroma of lush dark cherries and plush plum, with subtle wafts of vanilla and toasted oak.
- On the palate: Rich and smooth, the dark fruit character is balanced by velvety tannins and a gentle spice on the finish. It’s medium-bodied and exceptionally well-balanced.
- In simple terms: The secret weapon in your wine rack. A remarkably smooth red that makes any meal feel a little bit grander.
