The 2023 Amuse Bouche Napa Valley Red Wine, a Pomerol-inspired blend of 92% Merlot and 8% Cabernet Franc, opens with sleek freshness and lively black cherries evolving into rich blackcurrants and plums. Silky tannins and good acidity deliver a medium-bodied elegance with notes of spice, mocha, and subtle lavender. Well-balanced and structured like a Right Bank Bordeaux, it offers plush texture and sneaky persistence on the refined finish. Crafted from Rutherford’s hillside terroir by winemaker Heidi Barrett, this composed wine drinks beautifully now or with cellaring.
Serve at 60°F with grilled lamb chops.
