Krupp Brothers 2009 Veraison Red (Napa Valley)

Country: US / Veraison
Variety: Red Blend California
Winery: Krupp Brothers / Napa Valley

A blend of almost equal parts Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon, supported by smaller percentages of Merlot, Malbec, Cab Franc and Petit Verdot, this is a sizable wine. A tight fist of dry wood tannins and tobacco carries a gamy, leathery touch to the finish.
