Amuse Bouche

2023 Amuse Bouche Napa Valley Red Blend

The 2023 vintage in Napa Valley is considered to be one of the best in our region's history, and the art which adorns this release reflects that quality. The 2023 growing season was long and mild, with above-average rainfall in winter and spring. The grapes ripened slowly, allowing them to fully develop their rich tannins and flavors. We harvested in mid and late October. Freshness, purity and elegance will be the hallmarks of this phenomenal year.

We are excited to announce the release of the Amuse Bouche 2023, featuring original artwork by Jennifer Garant, entitled "Days of Wine and Roses."

Amuse Bouche 2023, crafted in the Pomerol-style, is a blend of 92% Merlot and 8% Cabernet Franc from our vineyards in the east Rutherford Hills in Napa Valley. I was recently tasting in Pomerol, furthering my olfactory education as we constantly strive to imbue our right-bank style wine with the terroir-driven depth and fleshy flavors that distinguish Amuse Bouche from most Merlot wines produced in California.

The Artist: Jennifer Garant

Jennifer's art is collected worldwide and is known for its figurative style, embodying the essence of whimsical charm and humor. Heavily influenced by Parisian scenes, she captures the joy of great food, wine, music, laughter, dancing and the good life. "With this painting, I want to take you to a sweeter time. When we share a glass of wine with people who appreciate it, we stop and smell the roses. We listen to music, we dance, we take in the art and have great conversation. Any stress can drip away and recreate the days of wine and roses. They say it's a bygone era….Don't believe it, it's yours for the taking!" Jennifer muses. Each allocation includes a hand-signed and numbered, limited-edition (700) lithograph, which we produce in France on Rives paper.
