WINE DESCRIPTION
Arkenstone Estate Red is crafted from grapes grown on the estate's hillside vineyards in the Howell Mountain AVA of Napa Valley, benefiting from the region's unique microclimate and volcanic soils. The wine is a blend of Bordeaux varietals, fermented in stainless steel to preserve fruit purity, and aged in French oak barrels to enhance structure and complexity. This full-bodied red offers a balanced profile with rich fruit flavors, integrated tannins, and a long finish. Designed for both immediate enjoyment and cellaring potential, it reflects the precision and care in Arkenstone's winemaking approach.
