Idlewright 2017 Opulent Red Napa Valley, California

Description

A beautiful representation of a rich and age-worthy Napa Valley Red Blend drawing upon Grenache for fruit and low acidity and Malbec for its inherent tannic structure. A traditional blend of classic Bordeaux varietals which thrive in the dry heat of the Napa Valley. Fruit spent 3 weeks on the skins before being gently pressed and aged in French oak for 18 months. A rich, opulent body is emphasized by dark fruit flavors and spiciness on the back end. Perfect for aging for a few years or for drinking now.
