The 14 Hands Hot to Trot Winemakers Red Blend is Washington State's best-selling red blend, crafted from grapes sourced in the acclaimed Columbia Valley appellation. Named for the unbridled spirit of the wild horses that once roamed the starkly beautiful hills of Washington State, this polished wine has earned a devoted following for its approachable, smooth character. This Costco offering comes as a case of 12 bottles, each 750ML.

The blend is composed predominantly of Merlot (57%), Syrah (25%), Cabernet Sauvignon (13.5%), and other complementary varieties (5%). The wine opens with inviting aromas of cherry, red currant, and tea, leading into flavors of cherry pie, ripe berries, and plums. A frame of refined tannins gives way to subtle notes of baking spice on a persistent finish. The wine is bottled at 13.5% alcohol by volume and earned 90 points from James Suckling, who praised its "pretty fruit-forward" character with notes of mulberries, sweet spices, chocolate, and creamy tannins.

Pairs beautifully with BBQ pork, grilled portabella mushrooms, lasagna, and hearty cheeses. Best served at 60-65°F.
