Description
Sourced from four Napa Valley floor and mountain vineyards, "Four of a Kind" teeters on the edge of Old and New World styles with a lush round mouth and a spine of acidity. It is beautifully balanced in the glass with a solid core of dark black and red fruit, nicely integrated tannins and finishes with the signature Rutherford Dust. Produced for Premiere Napa Valley, this is a very special wine that will continue to age gracefully in bottle.
