The 2017 is deep, dark and decadent with swirling flavors of blackberry, blueberry, black cherry and wild berry. It is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon from the Frank Leeds Vineyard in Rutherford and Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon grown high above St. Helena, Petit Verdot from the Rutherford Dalla Gasperina vineyard, St. Helena Cabernet Franc and Zinfandel from our Estate Vineyard in St. Helena. The 2017 Guido is reminiscent of the 2016 Guido blend but with a generous addition of St. Helena Cabernet Franc and Estate Zinfandel from the Charter Oak Vineyard. With the addition of Zinfandel, the Guido does a lively dance on the back of one’s tongue. What a super blend that packs a whooping punch but elegant with a captivating lingering finish. I recommend popping the cork on this beauty. The Guido wine will age gracefully over the next 10 to 20 years.
