    Somm Note

    Winemaker Notes

    Dark ruby red color. Warm, inviting aromas that are quite savory – plum, cedar, aromatic spices, tobacco, deeper floral notes, an edge of iron and tea leaf. Immediately dense and penetrating palate quite bound up in its youthful structure – roasted meat flavors that open to cola, black cherry and a lovely inner mouth floral perfume alongside complex herbal elements. Generous velvety texture develops with layered red and black fruits, spicy licorice and soy. Turns succulent and creamy with further air. Finishes with granular tannins and telltale fresh acidity with a lingering note of fragrant lilies.

    Undoubtedly proving its merit over and over, Napa Valley is a now a leading force in the world of prestigious red wine regions. Though Cabernet Sauvignon dominates Napa Valley, other red varieties certainly thrive here. Important but often overlooked include Merlot and other Bordeaux varieties well-regarded on their own as well as for their blending capacities. Very old vine Zinfandel represents an important historical stronghold for the region and Pinot noir is produced in the cooler southern parts, close to the San Pablo Bay.

    Perfectly situated running north to south, the valley acts as a corridor, pulling cool, moist air up from the San Pablo Bay in the evenings during the hot days of the growing season, which leads to even and slow grape ripening. Furthermore the valley claims over 100 soil variations including layers of volcanic, gravel, sand and silt—a combination excellent for world-class red wine production.
