Suckling over Disciples 2019
Powered by effusive, super-ripe, late-harvest fruit flavors, this jammy-tasting wine is packed with dried cherries and dried plums and topped with creme de cassis on a very full body with high alcohol. The tannins seem softened by all the ripeness for a smooth texture.

Information about the winemaker:
There is little reliable record of who originally planted the historic vineyard that The Crane Assembly's winemakers work today. It is believed that this is due to wine pioneer GB Crane in 1885, who was one of the first winemakers to move to the Napa Valley in the mid-1850s and was the first to introduce European varieties to the region. The gnarled and weathered bush vines that are still cultivated in this vineyard today are over 150 years old. Despite their fragility, their durability over the decades is a testament to their resilience and quality.
