Trefethen Dragon's Tooth Red Blend 2018 750ML

Red Blends from Napa Valley, California

Notes from the Winemaker

This wine opens with expressive aromas of cherry and blackberry accented with notes of fig, tobacco leaf, and sarsaparilla. Full-bodied and balanced, the integrated flavors of ripe dark fruit lead to a lush and abundant finish.

Winery Chef Chris Kennedy enjoys Dragon‘s Tooth with earthy and rich cuisine. He suggests pairing it with our Creamy Mushroom Pasta. The complementary flavors, textures, and intensity of both the dish and the wine are stunning.

Blend: 49% Malbec, 27% Petit Verdot, 24% Cabernet Sauvignon

Reviews and Accolades

96 Points Double Gold/ Sunset International Wine Competition, June 2021

94 Points/James Suckling
A rich, round red with plum, berry, chocolate and walnut character. Lots of cherry flavors. It’s full-bodied with round tannins and a delicious finish. 49% malbec, 27% petit verdot and 24% cabernet sauvignon. Drink or hold.

91 Points/Jeb Dunnuck
Based largely on Malbec blended with 27% Petit Verdot and 24% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2018 Red Blend Dragon's Tooth offers lots of smoked black fruits, toasty oak, chocolate, and darker, herbal, cedary notes to go with medium to full-bodied richness on the palate. The Petit Verdot becomes more obvious with time in the glass, and this rich, concentrated, yet elegant red blend has plenty to love. It's terrific today with a decant yet should easily evolve for a decade or more.

90 Points/Wine & Spirits
From vines planted in the rockier soils of Trefethen’s estate, this is half malbec, along with petit verdot and cabernet sauvignon. It leads with oak scents, but then the pretty side of malbec comes through with strawberry notes. Warm with tobacco scents in the end, this will yield its pleasures in a steakhouse.
