Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

Deep, dark and luxurious, this wine offers alluring aromas of blackberry, black cherry, blueberry, currant, and cocoa powder, with underlying hints of saddle leather, cinnamon, and clove. The voluptuous dark berry notes are echoed on the palate where they are framed by supple tannins and sophisticated layers of anise, vanilla, sweet tobacco leaf, and fresh-cracked black pepper, all of which carry the wine to a juicy dark berry finish.

Blend: 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11% Zinfandel, 10% Petit Verdot, 6% Petite Sirah, 6% Syrah, 4% Cabernet Franc, 3% Malbec

Professional Ratings

    The 2018 Paraduxx Proprietary Red shows up with plenty of lovely and enticing flavors that stay rich through the wine's finish. TASTING NOTES: This wine exhibits attractive aromas and flavors of blackberry, candied notes, and oak. Serve it with a grilled, well-marbled ribeye.

    This delivers a blast of violet, cassis, kirsch and black licorice notes all sewn together with a brambly thread. The flavors stay nicely in lockstep as they drive through the juicy finish. A crowd-pleasing style.

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.
