Next of Kyn No ~ 6

2012 Red Blend from Cumulus Vyd

Shipped in March 2016. This wine was offered in May of 2015 via email and letter.

This is the fifth Next of Kyn bottling. It is a blend of 38% Syrah, 37% Grenache, 17.4% Petite Sirah, and 7.6% Mourvedre, with 36% whole clusters. The wine spent 33 months in French oak barrels, 54% of which was new. Like all the previous Next of Kyn wines, this wine was sold to the Next of Kyn mailing list and shipped in specially designed wooden boxes, each one containing 3 bottles and 1 magnum. About 600 such boxes were made in this vintage.

The 2012 Next of Kyn No ~ 6 Red blend came in a special wood box held closed by a large rubber band. In the box were three 750ml bottles and one magnum (perpendicular to the other bottles).
