Wine for today
Meet the 2022 Wingman, the Syrah that plays its role perfectly—staying out of the spotlight so you can shine. Thanks to a vineyard that struggled to finish, this wine turned out to be a light-bodied summer red, offering just enough fruit without overcommitting. There’s no long finish or bold flavors, but that’s the point—it’s there when you need an easygoing, no-drama bottle to keep things casual.
Whether you’re grilling or chilling, the Wingman will always have your back, making you look like the one who has everything under control. It will make everything better, while not stealing the show, just like any good wingman (or wingwoman) should.
This isn’t the wine that demands a 5-course meal or Michelin-starred chef. Wingman’s got your back when you’re craving Kraft mac and cheese on a Tuesday night. Pair it with a Big Mac and fries—because, let’s be honest, sometimes that’s the vibe. Keep it simple with taco night, where the Syrah plays nice with seasoned beef and shredded cheese, no fancy stuff required. Chips and guac? Yep, Wingman’s cool with that too. This wine isn’t here to judge; it’s just here to make sure whatever you’re eating goes down a little smoother.
What Rebels Say About Us
Ashland Oregon Wine Shop Review
Look, not every Syrah needs to show up in a tux and steal the spotlight. Sometimes you just need that trusty buddy who’s “fine.” Enter Wingman, our 2022 Syrah. The fruit? It was…okay. The weather? Let’s just say we had other things on our minds. But hey, life’s not always about being the star of the show. Sometimes you want a wine that won't upstage your prime rib or your mother-in-law’s casserole—or even your other, more impressive wines. Wingman’s here to be the best supporting act you could ask for.
We’ve made some pretty jaw-dropping Syrahs before… and then there’s Wingman. Born in Southern Oregon's Rogue Valley—where the days are warm, the nights are cool, and sometimes the grapes have “creative differences”—this wine decided it was going to sit comfortably in the “perfectly acceptable” category. And you know what? We respect that. Every superhero needs a sidekick, right?
Taste: Kinda Syrah-ish. It’s got the basics: a bit of fruit, a dash of spice—enough to say, “Yep, that’s wine!”
Body: Not too heavy, not too light. More like the friend who’s always down to split the bill.
Personality: Laid-back, agreeable, and never hogging the conversation.
Come pay us a visit in Ashland, Oregon, where you can sample Wingman right next to our more glamorous wines. Will it blow your socks off? Probably not. But will it give you something to sip while you debate where to go for dinner? Absolutely.
