Origin California, Napa Valley
Alcohol/vol 15.5%
Our flagship is a Napa Valley tribute to left-bank Bordeaux blends - full, rich, and completely even across the palate with a medley of black cherry and hints of violets. The mid-palate is big and round with soft cherry-vanilla flavors. Natural acidity from mountain fruit provides perfect balance and a long finish. 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 17% Merlot, 3% Petit Verdot. Enjoyable now, but will age gracefully for decades

The 2017 Claret checks in as 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 17% Merlot, and the balance Petit Verdot that was sourced from a handful of sites (mountain and valley floor) and spent 20 months in 30% new French oak. Medium to full-bodied, flawlessly balanced, and with an upfront, charming style, it gives up impressive notes of darker currants, tobacco leaf, dried herbs, and chocolate. This was a difficult vintage for the valley, but Foley has turned out a bevy of terrific wines, and the tannin quality in all of these is impressive.
