Consistently exceeding expectations year after year, the 2023 'Chimera' from Sean Capiaux continues to impress. Named after the mythical Greek creature composed of three different animals—depicted on its label—the original vintage of Chimera was crafted from three grower vineyards. This latest release expands the blend to include four grower vineyards, showcasing its evolution. Medium-bodied with layers of dark red and purple fruits, it offers a harmonious balance of earthiness and cobbler spice. While Sean Capiaux is widely recognized in Napa Valley as the winemaker for O'Shaughnessy, he has been crafting expressive, terroir-driven Pinot Noirs from the Russian River Valley and Santa Lucia Highlands since the mid-1990s.
