2019 Four Kings
Dry Creek Valley—Sonoma County
14.9% Alcohol By Volume
Four Kings is a grand reserve blend of our finest wines from the Dry Creek Valley of Sonoma County. It captures our decades if history and embodies our ethos: to craft honest wines firmly rooted in tradition and reflective of the people and places that make and grow them. Four Kings is truly royal. Not because it’s fit for a King, but because it is a King, and we’re so happy to share it with everyone. This Bordeaux-inspired blend combines four royal grapes— Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Malbec— to create a muscular, fruity, and memorable wine. It’s got big tannins balanced with a fruit-forward nose. This wine is an elegant beast— powerful, gorgeous, and memorable.
The wine on balance is firmly connected to the many vintages before it: white cherry, black berry, bramble, and an unaplogetic, endearingly rustic, broad-shouldered charm. This time, there's just a hint more broad warmth through the mid-palate and sweet vanilla and dulce de leche on the nose. Big acidity and firm structure tell you ti check back in reguarly through 2050 or so.
