Palate
Teasing, at first, with a whiff of juicy red fruit, then finishing with dark cherry, plum, hints of Asian spice, and closing with a toasted oak, raw chocolate, and soft, round tannins. This savory wine will be one to enjoy for years to come.
Growing Conditions
Our NIGHT reds are grown high above the valley floor, at the peak of Napa Valley’s Spring Mountain. This vineyard region is characterized by dark, rich, black fruits, packed with flavor, tannin, and acidic accents that are known for producing some of Napa’s most notorious wines. Sitting atop the mountain at over 1500 feet, the gorgeous vineyard crests the mountain top with spectacular views of Napa Valley, that on a clear day can see San Francisco. With rich volcanic soils and hot days and cool nights, the fruit from this vineyard ripens long and slow capturing every bit of Mother Nature’s goodness.
This playful Merlot is the kissing cousin of our Cabernet. Grown just feet apart in the adjacent block, this subtle complement is the perfect starter to any meal or to simply enjoy on its own
Aging
Aged in 100% French Oak and cellared for 22 months.
