Fabulous red with mint, rosemary, dark chocolate and fruit. Medium to full body, fine tannins and a nice soft and plush finish. Bright acidity. Hard to hold back

A gorgeous second wine, the 2014 Asterisk has a lot to offer. Succulent red cherry, plum and pomegranate fruit give the wine much of its racy personality. In 2014, the Asterisk has terrific energy and brightness, with pretty floral and savory notes that add perfume. There is so much grace and class here, but readers should expect the slightly slender style that is typical of the year.

Too late, we are SOLD OUT!
This is what we'd like to call a "super second" wine, as it's a shame to call it a second wine at all when its quality can stand shoulder to shoulder with most wineries very best offerings. We have a tiny parcel of Asterisk to offer up while it lasts.
About the Producer
Perched on the eastern hills of Rutherford across 40 spectacular acres, overlooks the Napa Valley floor at elevations ranging from 875 to 990 feet above sea level. The 13 acres under vine were planted in 1997 on a mineral-rich, porous soil of fractured volcanic rock and sandy loam. The perfect blend of white tufa soil, a cool marine influence, and generous sun exposure forms the ideal site for growing fruit of a distinct quality and crafting exceptional wines that are compelling expressions of these elements. The wines are made by Martha McClellan.
