2016 | Roy Estate | Mr. Evans Estate Proprietary Red

The 2016 Mr. Evans Estate Proprietary Red is very deep garnet-purple in color, with beautiful cassis, crushed blackberries and wild blueberries scents with touches of violets, tilled soil, fungi, menthol and smoked meats plus a hint of cedar chest. Medium to full-bodied and tightly wound with loads of mineral accents coming through in the mouth, it's framed by very ripe, fine-grained tannins, finishing long and layered.

Reviews:

• Vinous: The 2016 Proprietary Red Mr. Evans has turned out beautifully. Ripe red cherry, plum, rose petal, mint and sweet spice give the Proprietary Red an extra kick of brightness that plays off the intense fruit nicely. All the elements come together beautifully.

Producer Information

Roy Estate was founded by Charles and Shirley Ro. A unique property blessed by its geography, topography, and terroir is situated immediately south of the renowned Stags Leap District at the cooler southern end of the Napa Valley. gentle slopes of Roy Estate are planted with Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot. On one side, classic volcanic soil produces smaller, low-yielding vines that generate wines with powerful tannins. The soil on the other side is more loamy and deep, supporting bigger and stronger vines that give more generous, profound, layered wines. The cooler conditions give their wines a more European-style tannic structure with a clear focus on the purity of the fruit. Summer fog often clings until mid-morning, moderating the sun’s intensity, preserving acidity and yielding wines with softer, fresher nuances.
