Rouge No. 6 is Ashes & Diamonds' most approachable red, a multi-vintage Bordeaux blend made by Steve Matthiasson that treats blending across years as a craft rather than a compromise. Cabernet Sauvignon leads, fleshed out with Merlot and Cabernet Franc, all modeled on the leaner, balanced Napa wines of the 1960s and '70s. At a gentle 13.6% alcohol, it's light on its feet, with bright cherry and blackberry over an earthy core. This is the bottle for a Tuesday night, not a special occasion lockbox. Easy, classic, and built for drinking now.
