The 2018 Realm Cellars The Bard is a powerful Napa Valley red blend, dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon with smaller amounts of Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Petit Verdot and Petite Sirah. Drawn from multiple vineyard sites and numerous lots, it displays layered complexity and structure. The nose offers inky dark fruits – crème de cassis, plum and blueberry – lifted by floral hints of lavender and notes of chocolate, clove and spice. On the palate, rich black fruit, liquorice and leather unfold over firm but polished tannins, finishing with a mineral-laced persistence.

A blend of 85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Cabernet Franc, 5% Merlot, 2% Petit Verdot and 2% Petite Sirah, the 2018 The Bard comes from 12 different vineyard sources and is composed from 40 separate lots. Deep garnet-purple colored, it soars from the glass with notions of crème de cassis, blueberry pie and plum preserves, giving way to a a wave of clove oil, chocolate box, exotic spices and cracked black pepper. Full-bodied, rich and plush in the mouth, it has loads of spice-spiked black fruit layers, lifted by just enough freshness, going long and mineral-laced on the finish. - Lisa Perrotti-Brown
