Cruse Wine Company Alder Springs Tannat, 2017 Napa Valley Blend: 65% SemillonTannat is a strong grape with tough tannins and deep dark hues. Cruse has wrangled this beast of a grape into a deliciously balanced and striking example of elegance. 100% Tannat from the impeccably farmed Alder Springs vineyard in Mendocino County.
