Valentino Red

From the mist-veiled hills surrounding Kenning Lodge, where the soil runs dark with history and the air hangs heavy with secrets, comes Valentino Red—a brooding, medieval red wine born of tradition, toil, and time. Crafted by the Valentino family, whose lineage traces back to the early 12th century, this wine is more than a drink—it is an heirloom of shadowed feasts, candlelit halls, and whispered oaths.The vineyard clings to a narrow stretch of land blessed by sun and storm alike. The vines, twisted and ancient, are said to have been planted by the family’s founder—Lucien Valentino, a knight-turned-vintner who abandoned the sword for the vine. Every autumn, the grapes are harvested by hand under the crescent moon, their skins thick with the memory of a thousand seasons.Tasting Profile:
Valentino Red is deep crimson in the glass, nearly black at the core. Its aroma evokes ripe black cherries, scorched rosemary, and a hint of smoked earth. On the tongue, it is full-bodied and intense—plush with stewed fig, cracked pepper, and a faint, metallic minerality reminiscent of iron-rich soil and old castle stone. Notes of cedar, dried violet, and leather linger on the finish, echoing like the last chord of a long-forgotten hymn.Aged in charred oak barrels sealed with wild beeswax, Valentino Red carries the soul of its origins—untamed, solemn, and enduring. It was once reserved for noble tables and midwinter rites, its presence a symbol of strength and survival in dark times.To drink Valentino Red is to drink history—feral, fragrant, and forever faithful to its bloodline.
