Winemaker Notes

This wine begins with alluring aromas of black currant and blueberry, as well as a subtle underlying note of rich milk chocolate. On the palate, luxurious layers of berry jam, sandalwood and leather mingle with hints of toasted coconut, all supported by a silky texture that carries the wine to a long, supple finish.

Production

2016 was an incredibly successful harvest for Paraduxx. Starting on August 15th with our Rector Creek Estate Viognier and ending on October 20th with perfectly ripened Rutherford Cabernet Sauvignon, the season was seamless. Overall, we harvested 15 different grape varieties from 14 different Napa Valley appellations. The growing season was filled with warm sunny days, intermittent cool weeks, and no rain events to speak of—all of which were ideal for achieving perfect ripeness with good natural acidity. Overall, there is a lovely elegance to our 2016 wines, with soft, velvety tannins and ripe, impeccably balanced berry flavors.
