The Little Red Truck That Could

I knew I could, I knew I could, I knew I could said the little red truck as it huffed and puffed to a prominent place among relatively small production (200,000 cases) marketing successes. The little red marketer is Cline Cellars, better know for it's Zinfandels than little red trucks, but much of their income these days is coming from their new line of red and white truck wines and they are not bad. We had the 2004 Red Truck Red at Michelle and Matt's wedding and we were pleasantly surprised by it's complexity and flavor interest. Smooth, yes, slightly sweet and fruity, yes, but interesting nevertheless. Probably the interesting flavor profile comes from the blending of Syrah, Petite Syrah, Cabernet Franc, with touches of Mourvedre and Grenache thrown in. This is actually a real Rhone Ranger blend at a reasonable price (suggested price $11) available in supermarkets. I knew they could, I knew they could, I did?
