  • NV Fontanella Family Wines Portmanteau - USA, California, Napa Valley, Mt. Veeder
    Deep garnet with a purple halo. The nose is expressive, offering ripe black cherry, plum reduction, and cassis, layered with cedar, dark chocolate, and a hint of cracked black pepper. On the palate, it’s full-bodied and velvety, showcasing flavors of blackcurrant compote, fig butter, and toasted oak. The tannins are firm yet ripe, harmonizing with balanced acidity and lingering sweetness. The finish is long and warm, with notes of espresso, baking spice, and dark cocoa. (86 pts.)
