Cellar for up to 9 years. Decant 1 hour before serving.

The Venges have been making stunning Napa Valley wines since the 1960s thanks to the passion and vision of Nils Venge who pursued his passion by studying viticulture at UC Davis. In 1976 Nils purchased a 17-acre vineyard in the Oakville District and thus became one of the early Napa Valley pioneers who recognised the remarkable viticultural potential of the region. Nils’ son, Kirk, soon followed in his father’s footsteps and in 2008 he successfully took over the running of the estate from his father.

The Scout’s Honor Proprietary Red is made in very limited quantities with prime fruit sourced from multiple top vineyard sites. Crafted as a tribute to the family’s late Labrador Retriever, Scout, the wine is composed of old vine Zinfandel, potent Petite Sirah, Charbono, and Syrah which is grown in steep mountain vineyards. Following vinification the wine is aged in French and American oak barrels for 14 months.

The result is an opulent, intense red which sings with exuberant aromas of crushed dark berries, sweet spices, anise and black truffle. The first sip reveals a firm structure, generous full body, and smooth tannins which give this wine excellent ageing potential. The rich blackberry, cassis and plum flavours and the bold personality of this wine make it a great match for hearty beef dishes like steak or beef bourguignon.
