"DB4" Proprietary Red is a limited-production introduction to the legendary Bryant Estate, crafted by winemaker KK Carothers. Serving as a brilliant window into one of Napa Valley’s most iconic cult properties, this inspired blend combines pristine fruit from Bryant’s hillside estate on Pritchard Hill with choice fruit from David Abreu's Madrona Ranch, Thorevilos and Las Posadas vineyards. The 2023 vintage is absolutely gorgeous, jumping from the glass with a high-toned bouquet of crème de cassis, wild blackberries, and dark plum preserves, seamlessly layered with complex signatures of crushed graphite, espresso bean, and fresh violets. On the palate, the wine delivers spectacular depth and a plush, velvety core of dark fruits, effortlessly balanced with excellent freshness. Framed by fine-grained, smooth tannins that provide a broad structure, it glides into a long, polished finish touched by mineral tension and dusty cocoa. This is a highly pedigreed, luxurious Napa Valley red that offers immense gratification today but possesses the stamina to thrive in the cellar for the next fifteen years.
