The fourth vintage of the Red Room Napa Valley Red Wine is a limited-edition, classic claret style Napa Valley wine completely unlike anything Raymond Vineyards has offered before. Available only in the Red Room, this exclusive blend of noble Bordeaux varietals grown in esteemed Sr. Helena vineyards is a stunning expression of opulence in a glass. "Classic" and "perfect" are just two accolades being bestowed upon the 2012 Napa Valley growing season and harvest. Textbook conditions saw near-ideal spring bud break, steady flowering, even fruit set, and a lengthy stretch of warm days and cool nights during the long summer months. Late and light rains held off until Napa Valley's treasured wine grapes found optimal ripeness, bringing exceptional quality to the crush pad and into the cellar.
