Description
Winemaker Sara Fowler has fashioned an assemblage that captures the diversity, complexity and essence of the Peju Province estate vineyard.
Inspired by the two new blocks in the Persephone Vineyard that now give her all five red Bordeaux varieties to play with, Sara stole through the barrel cellar with her wine thief to craft an exceptional blend for Premiere Napa Valley. This medley begins with a generous dollop of elegant Cabernet, a splash of rich Cabernet Franc, a sprinkle of opulent Merlot, a pinch of dense Petit Verdot, a hint of inky Malbec and a twist of playful mischief.
The resulting wine is graceful, deep and dark with high-toned notes of cedar, anise, bittersweet chocolate, mint and black fruit that melt into silky, gripping tannins and a longing for more.
