2008 Bressler Young Vines Red Blend (Varietal/Style / Reds / Red Blends)

Taking some of the fruit from the younger vines on their beautiful property in St. Helena, Bob & Stacey Bressler along with winemaker Mia Klein, have created a magnificent Bordeaux styled blend that made in a small batch by artisans. This wine is ready to drink and comprised of 49% Cabernet Franc, 45% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon and a 1% spoonful of Petit Verdot. A tiny 120 cases are made of this blackberry, roasted coffee and cassis-laden effort that is supple and round and drinking to perfection. No need to rush as there is a bit of underlying structure afoot, but ready to crack open at a moments notice to delve into the wild rush of fruit. An absolutely lovely wine!
