Bright aromas of red cherry, white mushroom, and fresh herbs. Vibrant raspberry and cocoa on the palate with cedar and fresh tobacco leaf.  Pairs well with roasted meats, mushrooms, and strong, fruit-based sauces.

VINEYARD

An iconic vineyard within the Carneros AVA, Stanly Ranch was originally planted in 1870 by Judge Stanly. Saintsbury's relationship with the Stanly Ranch formed in 1984 and this partnership remains intimate despite the popularity of the site. Today we enjoy exclusive access to the Stanly Ranch grapes from three hillside blocks that sit on clay loam soil.

Appellation: Carneros, Napa

Terroir: Clay loam soils with a mix of exposures form hillside blocks
