It's finally the time of year for mulled wine, that sweet, warming winter adult beverage made of boxed red wine, brandy, oranges, and a handful of the most delicious spices you can find. Truly dedicated fans, however—or, hey, just anyone who wants to switch up their hair to a new gorgeous shade for winter—will want to note the latest hair color trend that's been popping up all over Instagram lately. Behold, the jammy, plummy tones of "mulled wine hair."

Noted first by PopSugar, the color is marked by a deep berry-red base hue—the same shade as that Bordeaux you just poured into the saucepan to simmer—with undertones of cinnamon and orange. It's kind of like the purple-red hair color that was popular in the '90s, but the multidimensional tones in this shade, plus an updated cut, make it firmly of this year.

Ultimately, it's more soothing and less in-your-face—plus, the sheer variety of tone combinations you can explore means that there's a right shade of mulled wine for just about anyone. Lighter skin tones might opt for a brighter berry, while darker skin tones might steer toward the rich merlot shades, Allure reports.

It's not been the first time a trending shade has been named after a favorite beverage (this fall's "Cream Soda Hair" is a notable example), but there's something so warm about this shade that we're reaching for our mugs and cozy wool throws pretty much as we write this.

Of course, this Bordeaux shade has been having quite a moment lately—hello, eye shadow and Kate Middleton's wardrobe—but adding it to the world of hair color? Beautiful.
