Description
If you like Caymus Cabernet, you're going to love Napa Valley Quilt. Like a cozy blanket, Napa Valley Quilt is a velvety smooth wine from Joe Wagner, son of Caymus winemaker Chuck Wagner. He began working in the industry right out of high school, and in 2011 started Belle Glos as well as Meomi. Napa Valley Quilt exhibits his knowledge of the valley as he weaves together a patchwork of high end grape sources.
The winning bidder will receive a 1.5L magnum of this delicisousness.
Deep, dark brick red to blood plum. A seamless blend of crème de cassis, hazelnut, cocoa, blackberry preserves, a charry meat toastiness, dark fruits, and blackberry pie along with suggestions of dark licorice, stewed rhubarb, strawberry, spice, and vanillin.
Rich and satisfying with chocolate brownie, yogurt, molasses, brown sugar and rhubarb notes presented in perfect balance with higher-toned fruit emphasis. The wine?s weight is first felt on the front of the palate but then coats the entire mouth with placating tannin and light, pleasing grittiness.
This weight, ideally counterpoised alongside the acid, leaves the mouth-watering. Great persistence on the finish.
