Vanilla, black cherry and plum aromas and flavors open up as a soft silky structure that carry fruit flavors and touches of sweet-spice to a lovely finish. This wine is a delicious accompaniment to roasted chicken served with chutney or cheesy tomato lasagna.

Winemaker's Notes:

Beringer's Bancroft Ranch vineyard is located at an elevation of 1,800 feet on Howell Mountain, a growing area with well-drained volcanic soils. In 1984, Howell Mountain became the first area within the Napa Valley appellation to be declared a separate viticultural area (AVA) for the distinct characteristics of its wine grapes and now it is home to several of Napa Valley's most famous wines. Bancroft Ranch produces clusters with small berries whose high skin-to-fruit ratio results in well-structured wines with concentrated flavors.
