Winemaker Notes

This opulent expression of mountain winegrowing displays enticing layers of black currant, blackberry and elderberry, underscored by hints of cocoa nibs and sage. The rich, dark-berry flavors are echoed on the palate, where they are framed by fine, dusty tannins and alluring hints of chocolate and spice that linger throughout a luxurious finish.

Production

2019 brought another exceptional vintage to Napa Valley, resulting in wines with alluring polish and poise! The season began with a wet winter followed by a mild spring. While this led to a slightly later-than-normal start to the season, ideal summer weather with no significant heat spikes ensured ideal flavor development, yielding complex and vibrant whites, and refined reds with elegant tannins, enticing aromatics and beautiful fruit flavors.
