Country: US / Alison’s Cuvée
Variety: Bordeaux-style Red Blend California
Winery: Crane Family / Napa Valley
This red is made from 70% Merlot, with smaller additions of Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot. Eucalyptus and bay laurel dominate on the nose, as thick tannins resolve softly in the glass. Peppercorn, licorice and black cherry combine to offer big flavor and length, making way for a powerful finish.
