Pinot Noir and Cabernet rarely share a bottle. Township 7 paired them anyway, with Pinot taking the lead and Cabernet and Merlot from Washington's Double D vineyard filling in behind. The Pinot and a splash of Syrah grew in Sonoma's Russian River Valley, on sandy soils studded with shale and volcanic ash. Diplomacy has seldom tasted this good. This cheerful, red-fruited blend is made for maple-glazed pork chops or a platter of Montreal smoked meat.

Food pairings: maple-glazed pork chops, Montreal smoked meat, roast turkey with stuffing.

Reviews and Ratings

Deborah Podurgiel WSET IV Candidate - Certified Sommelier rated this wine as 93/100 with the following review:

Smooth and spicy Interlude Red 2024 was a match made in deep dish pizza heaven with a fully loaded mushroom, five pepper and sliced black olive pizza smothered in Mozza, Monterey Jack with Jalapeño and Parmesan cheeses.

Township 7 Vineyards & Winery Interlude Red 2024 is a unique red wine blend of Pinot Noir, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah wine grapes (42%/29%/20%/9%) sourced from Washington State and California. In answer to the 2024/25 freeze up that affected many wineries in British Columbia, winemaker Mary McDermott and her team sourced quality grapes from outside of BC, which were crafted, aged, and bottled at the estate winery in Naramata, BC.

Fragrant with bright red cherry, red berry, subtle spicy notes, the wine is dry, medium-plus-bodied and juicy on the palate with a mouthful of ripe red cherry, red berry all wrapped up in mouth-watering acidity that will cut through any three-cheese pizza. Tannins are soft and velvety. Very, very nice and easy to love. Tasted October 2026. Enjoy now through 2030.
