The 2020 Nicholson Jones Proprietary Cuvée is a wine of compelling depth, distinctive multi-varietal complexity, and the kind of carefully assembled Napa Valley red blend character that showcases Nicholson Jones's singular talent for blending the diverse terroir voices of their exceptional Napa Valley vineyard sources into a seamlessly integrated, deeply satisfying wine of genuine distinction and consistent quality. Crafted from the finest lots across the Nicholson Jones estate and selected partner vineyards, this Proprietary Cuvée represents the house philosophy at its most expressive: precision farming, minimalist vinification, and an unwavering commitment to showcasing the authentic character of Napa Valley's most exceptional sites in every bottle. The 2020 California vintage, shaped by warm, even ripening conditions and the focused, concentrated character that continues to distinguish California's warmest recent growing seasons, gave the Nicholson Jones Proprietary Cuvée an exceptional foundation of deep, richly flavored fruit with the natural structural integrity for genuine complexity and development: aromas of dense blackberry, dark plum, graphite, mocha, cedar, warm spice, and a mineral undertone lead to a full-bodied, concentrated, and beautifully structured palate with excellent tannin quality and a long, satisfying finish of real Nicholson Jones Proprietary distinction.
