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.

Venge Vineyards Scout's Honor Proprietary Red 2022
overall i had a positive experience, they have a wide range of wines, some which are hard to find anywhere else - the main reason i still buy from them, plus the discounts are fair and often, but... their codes for the first offer only works at the first offer, which if fine, but then why would you send me the voucher in each package i order, why spam me on the email and every time i log in on the website? this is really bothering me... then their rewards points system is useless, first of all because you only get peanuts even after spending €250 on an order, but even those peanuts will expire if you won't order again soon, which is unfair, to say the least... and lastly, if you get a corked wine, a wine with any deffect or a wine that leaked (my last order contained a bottle of $100 Caymus Cabernet with a leaking cork, which made the wine tasted cooked and flat), they have no procedure put in place for you to replace or return the wine or to get a refund or replacement - none, which is a big no no no for any wine collector... so all in all i give it 3 stars for now
