This classic Napa blend, rooted in the prestigious soils of Napa Valley, elegantly weaves together the best of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Syrah, and Petit Verdot.

This intricate aroma sets the stage for a tasting experience that promises and delivers richness and elegance in equal measure.
Upon tasting, the wine reveals a good mid-palate richness characterized by flavors of blackberry jam, plum, and cherry, seamlessly blending with tobacco and earthy undertones. The tannins are plush and rich, contributing to a structured yet velvety mouthfeel. As the wine opens up, it unfolds layers of crushed strawberries, plum jam, and a delicate finish of milk chocolate, showcasing the wine’s complexity and the skillful blending that defines Blackbird Vineyards’ approach.
