Idlewright 2018 Opulent Red Napa County, California
Napa’s climate and terroir make the world-renowned appellation perfect for the big and bold red wines that the region is known for. Just 50 miles from San Francisco but more inland than nearby Sonoma, Napa’s climate is hot, dry, and sunny during the growing season. The temperatures reach near 100 degrees on some days, giving fruit ample time to fully ripen. While the appellation is inland from the coast, fog and chilly winds still travel towards the region, providing relief to the daytime high heat. Temperatures in the evenings dip once the sun goes down, allowing vines to develop natural acidity and cool off a bit. This red blend is an incredibly enjoyable reflection of the unique varietals that come out of the region. A blend of Zinfandel, Merlot, and Syrah, this wine is full-bodied and fruit-forward. Dark fruit flavors meld with spicy, savory notes on the back end, and grippy tannins coat the palate thanks to the bold combination of the three varietals—a perfect wine for a hearty meat dish during colder months.
