Viader Proprietary Red Napa Valley 2011 3L

The Winery

Viader

Viader is an elegant wine showing the staying power delivered from a blend of mountain grown Cabernet Sauvignon highly influenced by Cabernet Franc. It’s a wine that involves all your senses and presents itself as pure natural harmony, and serves as the perfect background music to an evening’s conversation between two good friends.
–Delia Viader, Proprietor

Located northeast of St. Helena on the slopes of Howell Mountain is Viader. Founding winemaker and proprietor, Delia Viader, began her career in Napa Valley as a partnership with her father after they purchased a plot of underdeveloped mountain-top land. Delia quickly earned the reputation as a pioneer for planting vines running directly down the mountain, similar to many European vine-training techniques, and today is regarded as a fitting model for growing high-quality fruit. With Delia and her team’s persistence, the Viader property grew to immense popularity and its wines have been greatly coveted since inception.

Summary

The Viader Proprietary Red Napa Valley 2011 is a distinguished estate blend primarily featuring Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, crafted in the cool and wet conditions of the vintage. This wine showcases a delicate profile with aromas of redcurrant, flowers, and earthy notes, supported by a vibrant palate of red cherry and baking spices. The high-density hillside planting on rocky volcanic soils contributes to its elegance and balance. Aged in French oak, it presents a firm tannic structure and buoyant finish, embodying floral and herbal characteristics that highlight its sophistication and potential for aging. Blend composition: 66% Cabernet Sauvignon, 34% Cabernet Franc.
