RTW is a blend of Atlas Peak Cabernet from our estate vineyards as well as Merlot and Cabernet Franc from the valley floor. The mountain fruit gives the wine its structure and base. The valley grapes add more red fruit tones and complexity.
The result is a wine with full fruit flavors and soft, integrated tannins. There are hints of cedar and sage blended with notes of red and black fruit.
The acronym RTW stands for Red Table Wine. The focus in producing this wine was to craft a red wine that was ready to enjoy upon release, but with enough structure to age. This is a wine that we created to share often with family and friends.
