Bryant Bettina Proprietary Red 2009 is a Bordeaux-style red blend comprised of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc, sourced from the estate`s hillside vineyard in Napa Valley. This wine showcases a rich palate with layers of dried currant, mineral and nuances of tobacco, interwoven with hints of spice and herbal undertones. The tannins provide structure, allowing for potential ageing. Bryant Family Vineyard is renowned for its small production, with only 800 cases of this vintage produced.

The estate's 2009 Bettina offers up sweet red berries, freshly cut flowers, mint, spices and crushed rocks. The 2009 Bettina stands out for its bright, high-toned aromas and flavors, as well as its intense, saline minerality. Everything about the 2009 is in the right place. This is a flat-out great bottle of wine. In a word: Fabulous. Wow! Antonio Galloni1st December 2012
