Winemaker Notes: Blackbird Vineyards is an artisanal producer of Bordeaux-inspired wines from Napa Valley. Crafted by esteemed winemaker Aaron Pott, each wine in the portfolio is a true example of Blackbird’s ongoing commitment to quality and diversity of terroir by partnering with a selection of Napa Valley’s most prestigious vineyards. These include sites in high altitudes of Spring Mountain and Atlas Peak, the alluvial terrain of Saint Helena and the Oak Knoll district in Napa, and the cool climates of Carneros.
CRITICAL ACCLAIM

James Suckling - "A Bordeaux-style blend dominated by 55% cabernet franc, the wine has a pretty, floral aroma, inviting red fruit flavors and silky tannins, so it’s easy to sip even at a young age. Tastes nicely ripe, almost sweet, but not at all thick or cloying. Drink now or hold."

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate - "Blackbird's entry-level red is a blend of Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot and Zinfandel. Marked by scents of black cherries, dried herbs and a hint of red berries on the nose, the 2021 Arise Proprietary Red is medium to full-bodied, supple and silky but not that deep or rich. Still, it offers ample pleasure, with a long, vibrant finish. "
