TA S T I N G N O T E S In the tradition of our Swiss-Italian predecessors, we have crafted a flavorful cuvée of red grapes from the steep volcanic slopes of our Sorenson Vineyard perched high above the Napa Valley. Originally planted with vines in the 19th century, our estate vineyard yields fruit that offers a provocative harmony of aromas, flavors, and texture. The 2019 vintage brought impeccable balance to the wines of Burgess, and the Alpinist is no exception. Fresh and vibrant black and red fruit flavors take center stage behind a curtain of olive and peppercorn aromas, making this wine a veritable match for any dinner table.
