Tasting Notes
Zinfandel is the prominent contributor to the aromatics of this wine. Ripe and jammy notes of plum, wild strawberry and cherry. The palate has medium weight tannin and you can feel the Cabernet in the middle with its broad scope.

Crafted from grapes grown on our organically farmed Valle di Sotto vineyard in the Napa Valley, this wine harmoniously blends Zinfandel, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petite Sirah and Malbec into a bold and delicious red wine that stands alongside the captivating and empowering artwork on the label. Deep purple in color, this wine entices the senses with aromas of raspberry, Bing cherry and black licorice, intricately veiled beneath nuances of black pepper. The powerful finish will linger long after the last sip.

"Through this collaboration, I can artfully merge the empowering essence of my work, instilling joy and hope for women of color, with the rich and vibrant world of wine." - Reyna Noriega

This 2022 Reyna Noriega Red Blend comes from our new, CCOF certified Valle Di Sotto vineyard in the heart of the Oak Knoll District of Napa Valley. The Oak Knoll District is located at the southern end of the Valley where cooling marine influences create a unique micro- climate that helps the grapes maintain bright fruit flavors and retain acidity.
