Chateau Boswell Pinot Noir Sunchase 2014
Launches with a big, billowy, bouquet densely packed with black cherries, red berries, tobacco leaf and cloves. Layer upon layer of rich dark cherries, ripe raspberries, and creamy toasted oak provide an extraordinary Pinot experience. Enjoy tonight after decanting or anytime over the next 5 years, peaking around 2020.
Chateau Boswell Winery
Chateau Boswell Winery is an elegantly designed stately stone building with unique turrets located right next to the east side of the Northern Silverado Trail. This is one of the northern Napa Valley’s stunning estates. Their first commercial release was in 1979 and today their total production is fairly small, focusing on small production hand crafted wines. Their first winemaker was the famed soils expert and winemaker Andre Tchelistcheff and he in fact helped design and was instrumental in the layout and clonal choices for their original vineyard on site.
