INFUSION is Back!!

IT’S HERE!

This June get your hands on a one-of-a-kind.

For years Winexpert has consistently dazzled with an annual Limited Release in the Private Reserve Series and the lineage is impressive: Bruno, Odyssey, Fiero, Three Moons Cabernet, Bourbon Barrel Zin Cab, Nocturnal, Bravado, and Forza. It’s About Wine! is extremely excited to share what we have in store for you in 2026. Winexpert Private Reserve INFUSION, an ultra-premium red wine blend sourced from class vineyards in Lodi, California, USA.

INFUSION combines California’s two favourite red varietals, Cabernet Sauvignon and Zinfandel, with Syrah, an increasingly popular variety in the state. Combined, the three make a bold wine with an abundance of rich red and dark berry flavours, and serious tannin. But it’s the story behind the name INFUSION that really makes this wine unique.

In a Winexpert first, juice for this limited release was pre-oaked in-house, steeping for several months with Niagara whisky oak chips. During this 6 month steep, the juice absorbs flavours and tannin from the whisky oak, adding roundness to the body, infusing it with nuanced sweet spice and vanilla character. These whisky influenced sweet notes round out a bold wine rich with flavours of blackcurrant, jammy wildberry and plum, underlaid with mocha, spice and smoky toasted notes.

We are taking pre-orders now because this is going to fly out the door. If you were a fan of INFUSION back in 2023 you are going to want it again!!

Ready in only 8 weeks INFUSION is priced at $239 made on premise. That works out to $7.96 per bottle. Compare that to Whisky oaked wines in Liquor and Wine stores that start in the $20 per bottle range and upwards from there. Take the kit home and make yourself for $183.

The Region: Lodi, California, USA. Cab Syrah (Shiraz) blends are common, but the addition of Zinfandel is a golden state creation. These popular varietals thrive in Lodi, which tends to grow softer, more fruit-forward reds. Cab brings its signature black currant flavours, ample acid and tannin. Zinfandel adds jammy berries, with Syrah contributing plum and pepper. Together they make a bold wine with abundant berry flavours and rich tannin, making it an ideal base for something a little extra.

Food Pairing: Try aged cheeses, chicken mole, or bison burgers topped with roasted red pepper and caramelized onions. A great option for beef brisket, spicy sausage, or black bean chili.
