2017 Jillian's Blend
Description
Our family has been proudly growing grapes in Napa Valley for two generations; this unique fusion of four varietals honors the third generation in our farming family, our daughter Jillian. This Left Bank Bordeaux-style blend with a twist of Rhone is structured, but easy to drink.Tasting Notes
This is a truly unique blend. The eye-catching deep red-purple appearance is followed by a ripe nose showcasing flavors of blackberry, applewood smoked bacon and anise. The palate is a long-lasting note of excellence, with a soft, plush mouthfeel and standout flavors, such as cherry, cassis, Madagascar vanilla, crème leche and tobacco leaf. This is the perfect wine to be your favorite everyday red or to enjoy at your next backyard cookout. Drink now through 2030.Vineyard Notes
