Together they craft Vagabond wines with a gentle, largely non-interventionist hand, favoring ancient techniques like foot-stomping, ambient fermentation, and lees stirring, sourcing fruit from trusted grower relationships along Seneca Lake's southeast shore. Little Sparrow, their signature red table blend, is a tiny-production wine named for its spirit of unity, simplicity, and joy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe 2024 vintage blends 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Cabernet Franc and 25% Merlot into a medium-bodied, lifted red with a bright ruby hue. Expect energetic red fruit — cherry and raspberry — layered with subtle herbal lift from the Cabernet Franc, fine-grained tannins, and a fresh, food-friendly acidity that carries through a lively finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eAn unpretentious, small-batch red that captures the joyful, hands-on ethos of its winemakers and offers a rare, characterful expression of Bordeaux varieties grown on the Finger Lakes' cool-climate soils.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hudson Wine Merchants","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48699776860405,"sku":null,"price":36.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0713\/2056\/8053\/files\/images_971ff0d4-1106-4031-b09d-48208137a98a.jpg?v=1787332939","url":"https:\/\/www.hudsonwines.com\/products\/vagabond-little-sparrow-red-finger-lakes-2024","provider":"Hudson Wine Merchants","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
