When the air turns crisp and the nights stretch longer, it’s time to pour something bold enough to keep the dark at bay. Devil’s Prey is that wine—a fruit-forward, bourbon-laced red blend that wraps you in warmth while delivering a little thrill of its own. It’s the kind of bottle made for October evenings, shared fireside with friends, rich food, and maybe a ghost story or two.

A Colorado Original with a Fiery Soul

Devil’s Prey is our most approachable red blend, but don’t mistake “approachable” for tame. This wine comes with a spicy twist—a lush, full-bodied texture layered with ripe black and blue fruits, charred vanilla, and a kick of heat from aging in freshly emptied Colorado Bourbon barrels.

Each sip unravels notes of dark cherries, tobacco, brown sugar, and a hint of spice, giving this blend both depth and drinkability. It’s bold, dry, and smooth—exactly what autumn calls for.
