2020 The Vivian
Ryan Patrick
Introducing "The Vivian," a distinguished blend of Malbec and Cabernet Sauvignon, created to honor Vivian Flanagan, the elegant and enduring matriarch of Ryan Patrick Wines. Vivian, who continues to share her passion and expertise in our Leavenworth tasting room, is the heart and soul of our winery. Her dedication, elegance, and grace have inspired this exceptional wine, crafted as a tribute to her remarkable influence.
"The Vivian" captures the essence of Vivian's sophistication and timeless charm. The blend of Malbec and Cabernet Sauvignon results in a wine that is both velvety and bold. The Malbec offers rich, dark fruit flavors and a smooth texture, while the Cabernet Sauvignon adds structure and depth with its robust tannins and complex notes.
On the nose, "The Vivian" enchants with aromas of blackberry, plum, and subtle floral hints. The palate is a harmonious blend of black cherry, currant, and a touch of spice, leading to a long, elegant finish. Each sip reflects the care and craftsmanship that Vivian brings to every aspect of Ryan Patrick Wines.
Whether enjoyed now or cellared for future celebrations, "The Vivian" stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of a woman who embodies the spirit of our winery. Join us in raising a glass to Vivian Flanagan, whose dedication and grace continue to inspire us all.
