2021 Cosentino Winery THE Poet Red Blend, Napa Valley, 750ml

Tasting Notes

This beautiful wine opens with luscious aromas of rich black and cool blue fruit notes. On the palate, hints of earthy cedar and leather are layered with spice notes and a soft touch of vanilla surrounded by blackberry, currant, raspberry, and blueberry. On the finish, notes of nutmeg, peppercorn & cinnamon showcase the acidity and layered tannins that makes this wine perfect for a wide array of grilled meats, pasta dishes and French stews. Age or drink now through 2030.

Winemaker Notes

The 2021 growing season kicked off in January and February with plentiful, albeit short-lived, rainfall. The remainder of the season was dry with nearly no rainfall, which resulted in early budbreak, followed by early flowering, bloom and fruit set. Temperate spring and summer conditions of cool mornings and very warm days allowed for even veraison in July and continued ripening all the way to when we picked in September. The drought conditions created naturally lower yields resulting in intensely concentrated, flavorful berries and while less was produced overall, the wines bottled show excellent development.

Food Pairings

Drink with a Wagyu beef burger topped with Cambozola cheese.

Love the dark flavors in The Dark and The Poet. They go well with everything you eat. We are not fans of white or rose wines. Priced right too

We absolutely love the Poet and The Dark. We drink it with everything
