Klipsun Red Mountain Red Blend 2022
Tasting notes
On the nose, Dried cranberry, plum and fresh raspberry intertwined with spice. On the palate, ripe blue and dark fruits, nuances of herbs, cocoa spice and toasty oak. Debonair and supple in texture with polished tannins. Smart in structure. Enjoy now but will cellar well for 10+ years.

The 2022 growing season in Red Mountain was characterized by a cold and wet spring, a brief but hot summer, and a warm fall. The 2022 growing season resulted in expressive high-quality wines with high yields. This vintage marks the first to feature Cabernet from our newest vineyard block, planted with our preferred Cabernet clone, FPS-4, sourced from Terlato Family vineyards in Napa.
