Renteria 1st Cut Red 2015 Napa Valley - K. Laz Wine Collection
"We have the extraordinary opportunity to pick and choose from a variety of family-farmed vineyards for this blend. We decided to make Merlot and Syrah the dominant varietals for this blend, followed by the Cabernet Sauvignon.  The Merlot—provides extraordinary plushness to the mid-palate— hails from Tambor Vineyard, a rugged, slow-ripening site with gravelly soils, wide diurnal swings, and morning fog.  Finally, the Syrah from our dear neighbor Hyde Vineyard, is the cherry on top. This cool Carneros site with north-south orientation produces earthy, meaty Northern Rhone-style fruit that brings a fantastic range of aromatics to the blend.  The Cabernet Sauvignon from Stice Lane—grown in rocky, mineral-rich ancient riverbed soil in the southern part of St. Helena—contributes excellent structure and acidity.  The Petite Sirah from Chiarello's head-pruned, dry-farmed old vines adds  luscious blackberry and black pepper notes."
