Lovely nose of black cherry, black currant, toasty oak, a bit of mint/menthol, and some slightly earthy, green notes. Similar flavors on the palate with medium+ acid, medium tannins and medium+ body. Very smooth on the palate and finishes long. Very well made and balanced cab based blend. Paired great with a roast pork chop with red cabbage.

With some full and round cranberry notes to the nose. Smells like its got a goodly amount of franc in it. 38 cab, 34 franc, and then the rest Merlot. 40% new french. Rather francy on it.

Today, wine production is undertaken in all fifty states, with California producing 84% of all U.S. wine. The continent of North America is home to several native species of grape, including Vitis labrusca, Vitis riparia, Vitis rotundifolia, and Vitis vulpina, but the wine-making industry is based almost entirely on the cultivation of the European Vitis vinifera, which was introduced by European settlers. With more than 1,100,000 acres (4,500 km2) under vine, the United States is the fourth-largest wine producing country in the world, after Italy, Spain, and France.California2021 vintage: "Unlike almost all other areas of the state, the Russian River Valley had higher than normal crops in 2021, which has made for a wine of greater generosity and fruit forwardness than some of its stablemates." - Morgan Twain-Peterson Napa Valley Napa Valley Wineries and Wine (Napa Valley Vintners)St. Helena Appellation Napa Valley The single vineyards on weinlagen-info |
