The initial aromatic impression is of black and red raspberry, lingonberry jam, and chocolate ganache with a touch of thyme. The aromatics pair perfectly with a taste of macerated dark cherry, raspberry, clove, cinnamon, and vanilla. The finish delivers broad, chewy tannins that are offset by the fresh fruit and natural acidity of this wine.

Highlights
  • Varietal percentages : 42% Merlot, 39% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Cabernet Franc, 9% Petit Verdot
  • Vineyard(s) : Deux Chevaux Vineyard
  • Vineyard Notes : The 60-acre property is currently planted with 45 acres of grapes: Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, Merlot, Chardonnay, and Malbec. Over the decades, we have systematically replanted our Deux Chevaux Vineyard in small blocks to a diverse collection of rootstocks and clones, leaving ripped sections fallow to allow the soils to regenerate. Ongoing farming practices include planting cover crops, minimizing tilling, composting, and protecting the wildlife habitat along Conn Creek, which borders the property. We monitor vineyard weather, soil moisture, and vine stress so as to use irrigation as sparingly as possible.

Winery Info
TAMBER BEY VINEYARDS
Being a sustainable winegrower means producing high-quality grapes and wines; protecting the environment; being a responsible neighbor and employer; and maintaining a thriving, long-term business. When Tamber Bey vintner Barry Waitte purchased an established 60-acre vineyard in the Yountville Appellation of Napa Valley in 1999, he initiated a long-term plan for the property that would meet his objectives of sustainability, land preservation and diversification.
