Araujo Altagracia 2010 is a Bordeaux-style blend crafted from Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot sourced primarily from the Eisele Vineyard in Napa Valley. The wine offers a complex profile, revealing expressive layers of dark fruit, integrated spices and hints of chocolate. A significant aspect of this vintage is the shift in production strategy; Altagracia now incorporates fruit from outside the estate. Araujo estate, established by accomplished winemaker Bart Araujo, is known for its commitment to biodynamic farming, promoting sustainability and terroir expression in its wines.
