Goedhuis, August '21
A superb expression of the two combined vintages which form the composition of this beautiful wine. A classical blend of Bordeaux’s five famous varieties, cabernet sauvignon, cabernet franc, merlot, petit Verdot and malbec. Radiant purple colour, this combines fresh raspberry and summer berry scents. The initial sensation in the palate is a bright purity of fruit, the tannins provide a round harmonious feel, whilst also contributing to a feeling of structured weight with their characterful granular like texture coming through on the finish. This combination of ripe, juicy sweetness and a feeling of intensity and power reflect a new era for Overture, this is a class act in its own right. Superb.
Region
Napa Valley
This small town north of San Francisco has grown up to be one of California’s most famous wine regions. It is home to opulent Cabernets and sweetly-spiced Zinfandels, grown across many sub-regions including Stags Leap, Rutherford, Oakville and others. Cooling ocean fogs roll in from the Pacific at night and burn off in the summer sunshine, keeping the region cooler than you would expect for its latitude, and help produce some of the best Californian wines. Napa wines have the concentration and structure to age magnificently.
