St Supery Elu Red Blend 2019

$85.00

Elu is St. Supery's Bordeaux-style flagship, a Napa Valley estate blend built around Cabernet Sauvignon with Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Malbec and Petit Verdot rounding it out. The 2019 is full-bodied and opulent without tipping into heavy, with fine-grained tannins that show the estate's careful hand. Jeb Dunnuck gave it 92 points and called it ready to drink now through the next decade. A solid choice for anyone who wants a serious Napa red blend that isn't just varietal Cabernet.

Blackberry, blueberry, mocha, dried fig and crushed black pepper up front; velvety texture with black plum, cassis, cocoa powder and roasted espresso through a lingering finish.

Classic matches for a red like this: Grilled and roasted meats, hearty pastas, aged cheeses.

Estate fruit from St. Supery's Napa Valley vineyards, blended 71% Cabernet Sauvignon, 18% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc, 3% Malbec and 3% Petit Verdot.
