Product Overview
Winery's Notes:
"Our Nana, Catherine Trefethen, was Welsh. Her twin loves of wine and family were the original inspiration for our estate in Napa Valley’s Oak Knoll District. Celebrating our heritage, “Y Ddraig Goch”, the symbol of Wales, adorns this bottle of Dragon’s Tooth, a provocative blend born from the rockiest part of our vineyard.
Pronounced aromas of blueberry, plum and cassis are layered with earthy notes of leather and molasses. Rich and substantial on the palate, flavors of more blueberry, plum and cherry carry over to a long, toasty finish. Try this wine with smoked meats, caramelized vegetables and slow-cooked foods, which will complement its rich, earthy nature. Winery Chef Chris Kennedy recommends grilled onions and peppers with spicy sausage."
