Founders Ranch Napa Valley Red Blend (12-Bottles)

Tasting Notes

A beautiful ruby red color in the glass, this Red Wine opens with bright red fruit aromas of cherry and strawberry with a note of cardamom. Juicy flavors of raspberry continue through to the nicely textured palate with good tannin structure. The finish is long and savory and quite pleasant.

Story

2018 was a near picture-perfect growing season that began in late February, followed by a mild Spring yielding uniform grape clusters. Temperatures remained moderate to cool throughout the season with 2018 being considered one of the coolest vintages of the past decade. The cooler temperatures allowed for a longer hangtime resulting in an even and temperate harvest.
