Sparkman Cellars Kindred is a Bordeaux-style red blend from Washington State's Columbia Valley, first produced in 2008 as the gateway label to Sparkman Cellars' Bordeaux portfolio. The label features a 275-year-old oak tree in McMinnville, Tennessee, a tribute to winemaker Chris Sparkman's family roots.

The wine is typically composed of Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Merlot, and Syrah, with the exact blend varying by vintage. Expect aromas of loganberry, violets, and mocha on the nose, leading into rich and juicy flavors of blackberry, cherry, espresso, and spice box, finishing with a floral note. It is an approachable, fruit-forward expression of Columbia Valley terroir at a compelling price point.
