INTRODUCING THE FALL 2023 VARIETALS AND LABELS

Perspicacious

2019 Cabernet Sauvignon – Napa Valley

A perspicacious mind has the keen ability to see through and understand that which is puzzling or hidden.

Much akin to the eagerly insightful Mensan character, the seasoned vintners of this flagship Napa Valley have created a Cabernet Sauvignon intuitive in nature and intense in style — a classically astute representation of the appellation’s preeminent varietal. Expert notes of black cherry, blackberry, and plum are complemented by hints of toasted oak, dried currant, and baking spice. Fine-grained tannins and a rich brightness on the palate give way to a polished mouthfeel and exceptionally long finish. An amply perspicacious take on everything a Cab Sauv should be.

We introduce you to Perspicacious. Our flagship Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is a classic representation of the appellation’s preeminent varietal. Notes of black cherry, blackberry and plum are complemented by hits of toasted oak, dried currant and baking spice. Fine-grained tannins and ample brightness on the palate give way to a polished mouthfeel and exceptionally long finish.

Lambent

2020 Pinot Noir – Santa Barbara County

The lambent glow of brilliance begins with just a spark.

As sure as the lambent fire of inquisitiveness glows in Mensans, the bright, berry aromas and radiant flavor pairings of our 2020 Pinot Noir will light up your senses. With the proper complement of cherry, raspberry, and blackberry aromas, cleverly intertwined with unmistakable notes of brown sugar and baking spices, this Pinot Noir exhibits show-stopping fragrance. On the palate, the wine opens with the fresh, alluring presence of strawberry, leading to a round mouthfeel on the mid-palate and soft, velvety tannins for an elegant finish. A lambent expression of passionate flavor pairings and brilliantly delicate aromas.

We introduce you to Lambent. Our Pinot Noir from Santa Barbara County experiences a lengthy and cool growing season that is similar to the climate of the Burgundy region of east-central France. Unlike Burgundy, our Pinot Noir experiences dense fog that rolls in off the Pacific Ocean; this fog contributes to the ideal climate for Pinot Noir, offering just enough moisture to be beneficial without lingering too long.

This Pinot Noir has aromas of cherries, raspberries, blackberries, and brown sugar with notes of baking spices. On the palate, the wine opens with bright, fruit flavors of strawberries, leading to a round mouthfeel on the mid-palate and soft, velvety tannins on a long, elegant finish.
