Collaborating with Warner Brothers’ division of consumer products, Australian-based winery Wolf Blass has released a limited edition collection bearing the name of the popular new series, House of the Dragon.
The red wine is named after the House Targaryen motto: Fire & Blood. It is a blend of cabernet sauvignon and shiraz, a deep crimson red in colour, with aromas of dark fruits, blackberry and ripe plums. It has a lift of varietal cabernet on the nose and a hint of savoury spice, with the shiraz grape contributing a mid-palate fruit sweetness, with plush fruit weight, well balanced with structural oak and supportive tannins. There are three different custom labels to collect, each showing a different scene of the Targaryen’s monstrous guardian and symbol, the dragon, spitting enormous bright flames – a striking design element that contrasts with the bottle and liquid’s dark tone.
A highly anticipated prequel to HBO’s sensational fantasy saga Game of Thrones, the new series follows a historic civil war within the ruling house of Targaryen, set hundreds of years before the initial series. It received a warm welcome from new and loyal viewers alike. And as any fans of the series can attest, red wine is the ruler’s choice of beverage.
The wine collection itself was launched and available for purchase in Indonesia from December, which Wolf Blass ignited with an intimate event celebrating both wonderful wine and another excellent series.
