Bread & Butter Red Blend

Bread & Butter Red Blend is a California red, and in our September 2026 checks its low price of $10.99 put it among the least expensive reds we track. We do not have a shopper rating for this bottle.

Bread & Butter Wines describes its home and tasting room as an address on Silverado Trail in Napa, California, though that is the company's own location and not a stated source for the grapes in this blend. If you are sorting the reds by price, this is a low place to start. By September 2026, one store had the same bottle up at $20.99.

Bread & Butter's own fact sheet for this wine, labeled for the 2020 vintage, one year behind the 2021 release described on the current product page, lists the blend as 19 percent Merlot, 16 percent Syrah, 11 percent Touriga Nacional, 11 percent Cabernet Sauvignon, 8 percent Petite Sirah, 8 percent Grenache, 6 percent Zinfandel and 21 percent other red grapes, with time in French oak, about half of it new wood; the sheet's stated alcohol, 13.5 percent, matches the current release. The producer's tasting notes call the wine "balanced, velvety, and indulgent," with "notes of black plum, red cherry, blackberry, and rich chocolate" and "vanilla and caramel aromas", the winery's words, not ours, and the blend breakdown itself only appears on the downloadable sheet, not the product page.

Our call: worth a look if a detailed producer account, the blend's grape breakdown, its oak treatment, the winemaker's own words on style, is enough to draw you in at this price; Bread & Butter states its numbers plainly, right down to the oak percentage, even if those exact numbers come from a 2020 fact sheet one vintage behind the current 2021 release. Pass if you buy on the crowd's word: this bottle has no shopper rating on our record, so the producer's own account is carrying the case alone.
