The Winery
Vineyard 29
Vineyard 29 employs the most careful, patient (albeit time-consuming and labor intensive) techniques to create wines that fully express the potential of their vineyard heritage — their terroir. Applying the Old World theory of “elevage” — raising each vintage as one would raise a child — means giving the vines and the wine alike the height of gentle care and attention. By expressing this care, we strive to create a final product that is the highest representation of the vineyard and the climate in that year. Every piece of advanced machinery at Vineyard 29, beginning in the vineyards, enables us to treat our grapes with tremendous care, thus adhering to old world winemaking ideals through use of advanced modern technologies.
Summary
The Vineyard 29 Aida Estate Proprietary Red 2002 is a distinguished Cabernet Sauvignon-led blend from Napa Valley's historic Aida vineyard. This wine, crafted in a gravity-flow winery, showcases the region's unique rocky alluvial soils. The blend consists of 61% Cabernet Sauvignon and 39% Merlot, resulting in a full-bodied and concentrated profile. Its deep purple hue is complemented by complex aromas of blackberry, raspberry, and sweet spices, with hints of mocha and mint. On the palate, it exhibits firm tannins and a seamless integration of flavors, promising aging potential while being approachable now. This limited production wine represents the elegance and depth characteristic of the best New World reds.
