"Blended of 66% Cabernet Sauvignon and 34% Petite Sirah aged 20 months in 53% new French oak, the deep garnet-purple colored 2016 Resurrection Napa Valley Red sings of crème de cassis, lifted black plums preserves, cherry cordial and blueberry pie with hints of eucalyptus, licorice and violets. Big, rich, full and concentrated, it has layer upon layer of black fruits and spices, paved by fine-grained tannins and seamless freshness, finishing long. 210 cases were made."
