| Double T Napa Valley Red Wine by Trefethen & Trefethen, 2003
Made from the five classic red Bordeaux varietals, Double T has Cabernet Sauvignon as its backbone. Cabernet Franc brings softness and hints of floral fruit, Petit Verdot adds intense color and structure, Malbec adds a chocolate note and wild fruit, and the Merlot brings red fruit and lively spiciness. Aged in French and American oak for one year, this is a lovely bistro-style wine to be enjoyed anytime.
