Tesseron Estate 'Pym-Rae' - Napa Valley
Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet franc
| Vintage: | 2016 |
|---|---|
| Description: | In January 2016, the Tesseron family (owner of Château Pontet-Canet in Bordeaux) became the owners of Villa Sorriso (Villa of Smiles), the former property of the actor Robin Williams. The actor christened the vineyard with the middle names of his children "pym" and "rae". Due to this touching story and in respect to the previous owners, the Tesserons have chosen to continue this name for the domain's wine. "This is the debut vintage of this wine from the esteemed Bordeaux owner, Alfred Tesseron, who bought the property in the Napa mountains in 2016. Aromas of plums, wet earth, fresh herbs and tobacco. Some green olives. Turns to blueberries and blackberries. Full-bodied, yet reserved and layered with chocolate, walnuts and plums. Firm yet polished tannins give a framed sense to the wine. Savory. Racy and beautifully structured, it's extremely drinkable already. |
