A classic Bordeaux-styled wine, the Cuvée 38 shows the strength and structure of Old World varietals with the finesse and floral signature of Napa Valley. A blend of 67% Merlot, 28% Cabernet Franc, 4% Malbec, and 1% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2017 Cuvée 38 captures the complexity, regal mouth feel, and soft, silky tannins that are hallmarks of the Bordeaux Right Bank style. This is an expressive wine with dark cherry, cassis, and blackberry flavors that are enhanced by French oak aging, further contributing to the balance, silky tannins, and lingering finish.
