Product Notes:
Premiere Napa Valley is a Midwinter Barrel Auction for the Trade has become one of the world's foremost commercial wine auctions. The event, featuring one-of-a-kind wine lots, attracts a virtual who's who of the international hospitality and beverage trade to Napa Valley each February. This is one of the exclusive lots purchased by Meritage Wine Market.
Many wine lovers have an ongoing love affair with Cabernet Franc based blends and the Miner Family is no different. Plucked and culled from top fruit sources throughout the Napa Valley, this wine exudes a certain elegance and balance that immediately caught our palate. This particular blend is 60% Cabernet Franc and 40% Cabernet. Once it gently glides over your palate, it becomes immediately clear that the finesse and seductiveness of this wine makes it addictive. We tasted 165 different barrel samples in just over 2 hours and this was probably one of probably 10 that stood out and kept drawing us back for "just one more taste". 10 cases of this wine were produced and we have it on sale on a futures basis. Estimated date of release is February 2006.
