Paraduxx
is known for its blended wines. In fact that is its mission statement - to
blend wines from Napa Valley to create the best possible assemblage. Their Napa
Valley Red Wine is a wine I’ve had over multiple vintages and it is a wine that
has literally never failed to impress. Comprised mainly of Cabernet Sauvignon
with 35% Syrah blended in grown on Howell Mountain, this is a beautifully
delicate wine with everything you want - subtle blueberry, black cherry,
elderberry, boysenberry, soft judicious use of oak, vanilla, black cherry. But
what makes this stand out is the harmonious nature of the fruit, the acidity,
the oak to produce a seamless wine that is thoroughly enjoyable to drink and
has a wonderful palate feel. But this is what Paraduxx excels at with their red
table wines. That they manage to do this year after year shows an impressive
level of consistency and dedication to producing the best wine they can.
