Napa Valley, California, USA
Founded in 1996, with 76 acres on hilltop in the Yakima Valley, and planted 10 acres of Cab Sauv, Cab Franc & Syrah, with first harvest 2000 and created L’Orage, blend of the 3 planted grapes. Deep Ruby with rich fruit aromas with floral oak spice, for this Napa offering. On the palate blackberry & cherry flavors with cacao and toasty cedar notes. Fine tannins, a bit tight, long finish, well integrated, nicely balanced.
