Tasting NOTES
Predominantly composed of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon La Cuadrilla (The Crew) Blend is a result of a collaboration by all members of our winemaking team. Any winemaker will admit that he or she is only as good as the team in the cellar, and we think our team is the best in the biz. What better way to honor this hardworking crew who spend hours upon hours ensuring the wine safely and deliciously make it into our glass. This wine captures not only the spirit and camaraderie of our cuadrilla, but the very spirit the Bacchus Club represents.
Vineyard NOTES
Eight miles north of San Pablo Bay, the Bundschu familys 161 year-old vineyard wraps around the southwest slopes of the Mayacamas Mountains. The terrain features steep, southwest-facing hillsides of shallow, rocky soils of volcanic ash and alluvial wash. Pervasive maritime breezes and long daylight exposure allow fruit to develop intense concentration while retaining vibrant structure. A portion is sourced from warmer vineyard sites in Sonoma Valley to add lushness to the mid-palate.
