Carter Cellars The Daze Red Blend 2021


Tasting Notes

A new offering for Carter Cellars, this is a Merlot based wine married with Cabernet Franc from the Suscol Mountain vineyard located in Napa right above San Pablo Bay, a site known for its cool climate. The Daze has a dark inky color, matched with dark red and black fruits, kirsch, lavender and savory fresh earth. The palate is full-bodied and long, supported by fine-grained tannins and loads of freshness – give this wine a try and you will be rewarded with a pleasure attack on your senses.

Carter Cellars The Daze Label 2021

"The 2021 Daze is composed of equal parts Merlot and Cabernet Franc. It displays an impressive dark, inky color, along with a wonderful aromatic profile of ripe blackberries, black cherries and hints of boysenberries, which are accented by exotic spices, incense, wildflowers and hints of vanilla bean slowly emerging with extended air contact. On the palate this possesses a full body with excellent overall concentration, combining ripe fruit with lovely underlying acidity and minerality that lead into the long, spice-tinged finish. This is a beautifully made wine that should go on to evolve gracefully over the next decade and beyond."
