2023 Scout's Honor Proprietary Red

Our Scout’s Honor blend is based on a tradition of producing a full bodied and delicious red wine that is ready to consume upon release. We start with a base of old-vine Zinfandel and build upon that with old-vine Charbono, dry-farmed Petite Sirah, and finish with mountain Syrah. Full-bodied, concentrated, and gorgeous, with a balance of full bodied tannins and jammy, ripe black fruits, sweet currants, pepper spice, and mouthwatering deliciousness.

The move to a dual AVA listing on this wine has opened our ability to continue to produce a high-quality red blend without realizing a significant decrease in production on this historic and popular wine. In Napa Valley, old-vine vineyards are becoming very scarce commodities as they are being replanted to Bordeaux varieties or purchased by competing interests. As we considered our options, we reflected upon our success with Sonoma County fruit at our sister winery, in Russian River Valley, where delicious, old-vine crops are abundant and provide a unique lift in complex freshness and concentrated flavors. The resulting shift in production has resulted in a wine that is complex and delicious!

DEDICATION

First produced in 1996, this wine is dedicated in memory of our beloved, yellow Labrador Retriever, Scout. We immediately recognized that he was an exceptional Lab when we first met him in 1989 at the Napa County Animal Adoption Center. Rescuing Scout proved to be a destined decision! He was a loyal and loving companion who helped us welcome visitors to our winery for seven memorable years.
