Lewis Cellars Alec’s Red Blend

$78.99

As the name implies, The Big Blend is bold and spirited. We strive to deliver a truly memorable explosion of flavors – a wine that feels energetic and alive. This is the only wine in our portfolio that sees both American and French oak, which each enhances the rich character and complexity of the wine. Always anchored by a backbone of Syrah, The Big Blend is distinctive with each vintage. This wine was formerly named Alec’s Blend.

Description

Our 2022 The Big Blend – Syrah-based with some Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and Petite Sirah – arouses the palate with notes of chocolatey layers and ripe, kirsch-infused cherries. Youthful and energetic, this is a wine with a huge concentration of flavors that are juicy and delicious yet seriously structured.

LEWIS CELLARS

2022 stands out as one of the most unique vintages in recent Napa Valley history. A long summer of warm days and cool nights came to a crescendo with an impressive five-day heatwave in September. The heat spell eventually gave way to more mild weather through October, allowing the grapes to develop a more refined, elegant character.
