Trefethen 2021 "Eshcol" Napa Red
Winemaker Notes
Built in 1886, John and Janet Trefethen began restoring what is today the Trefethen winery in 1973. A national historic landmark and the only wooden gravity-flow winery in the Napa Valley, Trefethen is also one of Napa's largest estate wineries, with its 600 acres of vineyards surrounding the winery.
Eshcol Red is an authentic and approachable red blend, sourced entirely from the estate's Main Ranch vineyard. Winemaker Bryan Kays crafts a unique blend each year, featuring the strengths of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot complemented by the inclusion of smaller amounts of Petit Verdot, Malbec and Cabernet Franc.
The wine opens with bold fruit-forward aromas of blackberry and dried cherry. On the palate, bright red fruit flavors give way to modest tannins and balanced acidity, making it very food-friendly and ready to pair with casual dinners at home. Try this wine with lower fat protein and fragrant herbs, such as fennel. Winery Chef Chris Kennedy recommends Fennel Porchetta, which will accentuate its earthy notes and balanced nature.
