Amuse Bouche Napa Valley Red Blend 2022

Limited new release. Amuse Bouche 2022, produced by Heidi Barrett and crafted in the Pomerol-style, is a blend of 92% Merlot and 8% Cabernet Franc from our vineyards in the east Rutherford Hills of Napa Valley 96 Points Antonio Galloni (Vinous): "The Amuse Bouche Proprietary Red, a Right Bank-inspired Merlot/Cabernet Franc blend is superb. Expansive, sweet aromatics are immediately seductive. Silky tannins wrap around a core of plum fruit, sweet tobacco, chocolate, spice and leather. This wonderfully expressive, elegant Napa Valley red hits all the right notes in a mid-weight, nuanced style that is all class." Amuse Bouche 2022 features the original artwork of renowned French artist Marc Clauzade. His piece entitled "Casse-Croûte" (which roughly translates to "tasty snack") portrays the beautiful chaos of a kitchen scene - its vibrant colors an apt illustration of Julia Child's famous quote. You may remember that Marc's portrayal of the lady in the red dress, "Le Bar à Vin", adorned our label more than a decade ago.
