Right Bank

Bordeaux Blend

The 2012 vintage in the hills above Sonoma provided a long, temperate growing season – a welcome relief from the drama Mother Nature gave us in 2010 and 2011. Our Right Bank Blend tells the story of the relationship between Cabernet Franc and Merlot. Each of these varietals is compelling on its own, but when blended together they combine to make something magical. It displays abundant structure, ample acidity and an endless finish – everything we expect from one of our flagship wines.
