Description
Miner The Oracle is an exceptionally balanced, full-bodied red blend made from grapes grown at Stagecoach Vineyard in the eastern hills of Napa Valley. In Greek mythology, the oracle was a source of inspiration and revelation. The blend in this wine is 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Cabernet Franc, 15% Merlot, 5% Malbec and 5% Petit Verdot. The perfect glass for enjoying The Oracle is the Riedel Vinum Bordeaux/Cabernet Sauvignon/Merlot glass. This glass is best for young, full bodied, complex red wines that are high in tannin. This glass smooths out the rough edges, emphasizing the fruit, allowing wines to achieve a balance that would normally take years of ageing to acquire. The generous size of this glass allows the bouquet to develop fully. The shape directs the flow of wine onto the zone of the tongue which perceives sweetness, thus accentuating the fruit and de-emphasizing the bitter qualities of the tannin. Each glass stands 8 7/8" high and holds 21 1/2 oz. This gift not only features the Miner The Oracle but also two of these lead crystal glasses.
Wine Gift Includes:
- Miner The Oracle
- Riedel Vinum Set of 2 Bordeaux/Cabernet Sauvignon/Merlot Glasses
The Vinum series is made from 24% lead crystal.
Attention California residents. Proposition 65 warning:
