Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
Aromatic spices coupled with raspberry
aromas, alongside fresh cranberry, dark chocolate and caramel
flavors. Rich tannins lead to a full bodied wine with a long finish
Vineyard Notes
The 2015 growing season began with unseasonably warm
winter and spring temperatures across Napa Valley. Soils
began to warm up quickly, which initiated an early bud
break. Colder temperatures then followed, creating a smaller
crop than previous years as winemakers prepared for harvest.
Picking began in early August, proving to be one of the
earliest harvests Napa Valley has ever seen. Across the valley,
winemakers were happy to report the outstanding quality
and great fruit concentration produced by the early harvest.
Production Notes
Napa Valley is ideally positioned between two mountain
ranges to the east and to the west: the Vaca and the
Mayacamas. Within the valley, grape character and f lavor
are unique expressions of the diverse soil types and
microclimates. We hand select lots from this rich array of
outstanding fruit, including vineyards within the
Rutherford appellation, to craft Two Range Red Wine, a
delicious and complex blend that captures the essence of this
world-renowned wine growing region.
Food Pairing Notes
Pair our Two Range Red Wine with a lamb tagine,
vegetarian lasagna or a dark chocolate souff lé.
Other Notes
Predominant varietals include Merlot, Cabernet
Sauvignon, Pinot Noir and Petit Verdot
