This great red blend is made up of 66% Cabernet Sauvignon from, 12% Malbec, 11% Merlot, 7% Petite Verdot, and 4% Cabernet Franc. Grapes were sourced from nearly all of Napa Valley’s appellations.
From the winemaker – “Berries, violets, allspice and freshly baked pastry unite in an offering reminiscent of berry pie. The aromatic potpourri prominently features bright cherry flavors and sandalwood-tinged cocoa spice. Handsomely sculptured tannins showcase the mouth-watering fruit compote in the long, lingering finish.”
This wine goes well with pork chops cooked in a variety of ways, even spicy, or BBQ spare ribs. Firm and savory cheeses like Cheddar.
