A Mount Veeder Classic -- Henry's Keep

--2011 Brandlin Henry’s Keep Proprietary Red Wine, in 3 Litre
--Tasting for Four Guests at the Los Carneros Tasting Room

Brandlin is Cuvaison’s Mount Veeder-situated property devoted to Bordeaux grapes. Brandlin wines are produced by Cuvaison Estate Wines, a family-owned Napa Valley vintner and a leading producer of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir from Carneros.

Four guests will enjoy a tasting experience at the Cuvaison Los Carneros tasting room, a light-filled space surrounded by waves of vineyards and stunning architecture.  You’ll have the opportunity to select from several curated tasting flights all while enjoying breathtaking views of Cuvaison's sprawling estate vineyard. 

As a special addition to this auction, the lucky winner will receive a 3 Litre bottle of 2011 Brandlin’s Henry’s Keep, a proprietary red honoring the property’s founder, Henry Brandlin. Backed up by 81% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Merlot and a dollop of Petit Verdot and Malbec, this lush, satin-textured aromatic creature is all ink and iron—that is, until you get to the violets and roses. Juicy and woody, it opens with a rich, Cabernet Franc-like nose of herb and cassis and is balanced on the palate, with a ripeness of oak at the end.
