Welcome back to your Napa Valley connection! This month we celebrate the end of summer with one last swirl in our glass before transitioning into the harvest season. We have some wine suggestions to make the last days of summer memorable for sunset gatherings or quiet dinners for two. Also, we are sharing a savory rib-eye steak recipe to pair with a Kenzo Estate red wine and set the mood for your Labor Day celebrations to come.
Have you been thinking about what wine would round out your cellar? We have something special to suggest that is rarely available online--the aged 2006 ai, a classic Napa Cabernet Sauvignon containing 90% of the varietal, 5% Merlot, 2.5% Cabernet Franc, and 2.5% Petit Verdot. For those of you who enjoyed the pleasure of our 2006 rindo, you will enjoy this one as well; we currently have the 2006 ai available in 750 ml sizes but in limited quantities. If you tasted the 2006 rindo, you probably know that the harvest year for 2006 reds was an exceptional year. The ai varietals in particular were selected from Kenzo Estate's highest quality barrels and that has produced its opulent taste and amazing ageability. This wine is one of our boldest wines in our portfolio and is named after the Japanese art of creating indigo dye, echoing ai's dark garnet color. Scroll down for the matching recipe of a savory rib-eye steak.
For shipments going to warmer states, please request temperature controlled shipping with ice-packs in your order. Our shipping department will be closed Labor Day, as will Kenzo Estate. Contact us for questions at 415-735-4998 or online@kenzoestate.com.
To all of our 2013 yui, Rosé sippers, we thank you for your enthusiasm for our classic rosé. We have sold out of the full-bottles of yui, but we do have them available in 375 ml bottles or in the Summer Wine Trio set. If you're looking for a starter wine to accompany your Labor Day celebration, this one is a versatile yet elegant choice. It has a clean and refreshing acidity and can be paired with just about any food, which is why wine enthusiasts drink it year round whether it be at barbecues or paired with the first course of holiday dinners. Our Bordeaux blend rosé has 68% Merlot and 32% Cabernet Franc.
Shipping Included on 6 bottles or more in the U.S., except HI.
