Vermeil 2013 XXXIV Proprietary Red (Calistoga)

Country: US / California
Variety: Cabernet Blend
Winery: Vermeil / XXXIV Proprietary

This proprietary red combines equal portions of Cabernet Franc and Petite Sirah with smaller amounts of Cabernet Sauvignon and Zinfandel. Altogether, they form soft, spicy waves of full-bodied flavor, showing off characteristics of leather, black pepper and clove, with the tannins intrusive and lengthy.
