ORIN SWIFT 'PAPILLON' 750 ml

Description

Discover the bold allure of Orin Swift Papillon, a standout red wine hailing from California's Napa Valley. This exceptional pour stands apart as one of the few blending all five classic Bordeaux varietals: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Malbec, and Petit Verdot. Each grape contributes its signature character, creating a harmonious fusion that captivates from the first pour.

Cabernet Sauvignon anchors the wine with its commanding presence, while Merlot weaves in layers of richness. Cabernet Franc adds a vibrant edge, Malbec lends profound layers, and Petit Verdot brings a velvety smoothness. Together, they craft a seamless balance in every bottle, ready to elevate your next gathering or quiet evening.

Pour a glass and note the deep crimson heart edged with a brick hue, signaling the intensity within. Scents rise gently—think ripe currants, blackberries, hints of blue fruits, whispers of anise, lavender, and a touch of brioche. On the palate, flavors unfold dynamically: imagine a swirl of mixed berry pie mingling with sarsaparilla, cola notes, and blackcurrant depth. The mid-palate offers firm structure, leading to tannins with a chalky texture reminiscent of black tea or baking chocolate. It all closes on a note of sweet oak, lingering invitingly.

At 15.50% ABV and in a standard 750 ml bottle, this dry red (sweetness level 01) delivers premium quality for $110.49. Perfect for collectors or those seeking a sophisticated Napa Valley Bordeaux-style blend, Papillon promises an experience worth savoring. Whether pairing with hearty dishes or enjoying solo, its complexity rewards every sip. Secure your bottle today and let this rare varietal symphony unfold in your glass.

Orin Swift Papillon red wine captures Napa Valley's prestige in a bottle, blending tradition with California's vibrant terroir. Ideal for wine enthusiasts exploring Bordeaux blends from the United States, this varietal masterpiece offers depth and elegance without compromise.
