2021 Limerick Lane 'Estate Cuvee' Proprietary Red Blend Russian River Valley

Winemakers Notes: The 2021 Estate Cuvée stands as a testament to our unwavering dedication to crafting a wine that epitomizes excellence, expression, and perfect balance. Meticulously created from the finest lots of each vintage, this cuvée is a true celebration of uniqueness, capturing the essence of our estate every year. Unlike wines focused on a single varietal, our Estate Cuvée embraces variability, allowing the composition to evolve significantly from one vintage to another. This approach ensures that each year's blend reflects the captivating and compelling lots that emerge from our estate. Only when a vintage showcases its utmost potential for quality do we curate the components of this extraordinary wine. By discarding varietal restrictions, our singular objective is to create a symphony where the whole harmoniously transcends the individual parts, offering an experience that is truly captivating.

Limerick Lane lies where four unique appellations come together, on a 53-acre estate just inside the northeast corner of Sonoma County’s Russian River Valley. In an appellation that’s renowned for Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, we grow and produce world-class Zinfandel and Rhone Varietals. We sit at an exact point where soil, water levels, rocks, sunshine, wind and fog meet. On top of, underneath, and in the midst of these earthly factors sit grapevines perfectly evolved in their composition to thrive in this exact environment. Without any one of these individual factors, these wines wouldn’t exist.

CRITICAL ACCLAIM


Vinous - "The 2021 Estate Cuvée, the top wine here, is fabulous. All the best elements of the house style and estate come together. Dark blue/purplish fruit, lavender, spice, and pomegranate are some of many aromas and flavors that saturate the palate. Seamless and pure, with fabulous balance, the 2021 is a drop-dead-gorgeous beauty."


Wine Spectator - "A handsome wine, briary yet refined in structure, with deep blackberry and cherry flavors that draw in roasted sage and cracked pepper as this builds tension toward medium-grained tannins."
