2019 AXR Proprietary Red Napa Valley
We’re loving this aromatic red with its explosion of ripe blackberries rolling across a bed of flowers like violet, lavender and roses. Vanilla, cedar, and dried herbs also make an appearance in the blend of 90% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Cabernet Franc, 4% Merlot and a kiss of Petit Verdot. Medium to full-bodied, it’s soft and juicy in the mouth, loaded with fruit and subtle earth. The finish is long and savory, lingering on fine tannins. Another terrific vintage to follow up on the 2018 – don't miss it!
