Tasting profile
Structure: full-bodied, medium tannin, high acidity, dry
Kiona's Red Mountain Zeus is a deliberately multi-vintage red: Merlot-dominant, with Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon, drawn from four Red Mountain vineyards across several harvests and barrel-aged for more than three years before release, so the label carries no vintage. Crushed blueberry, ripe fig and dark chocolate meet black stone, iron, green peppercorn and mint leaf. Bold and powerful yet firmly balanced, with generous acidity and a spicy finish.
Serving: Serve at 16–18 °C.
