Luna Sangiovese Riserva Napa Valley 2018
Back to the future! LUNA Sangiovese! Today, the not-for-the-shy RISERVA version - bigger, badder, and more effortlessly badass Napa Valley than any before!
Seriously, though, kids, Luna has been the KING of Sangiovese (the grape of Brunello, Chianti, etc) in Napa since the mid-90s, back when the legendary John Kongsgaard put them on the map BIG time. 2018 is a fantastic vintage here in paradise, and you’ve got all the good stuff in this one -- 100% OAKVILLE Sangiovese from the Game Farm Vineyard on the Silverado Trail below Rector Creek Dam. Too cool!
Deeper, darker, and more cigar-boxy, baking-spiced than its younger brothers and sisters, we suggest you make sure to have a kick-butt hearty dinner at the ready. Preferably tons of cheesy pasta, too! That Parmesan will make the boysenberry fruit BURST, the intense concentration and lifted acidity POP, the rich mocha-like finish LINGER. So good. Absolutely shockingly well-priced, of course, because that’s what we do!! Happy Thursday, good people, and goodnight!! While it lasts!

About The Producer
When Luna's founders first laid eyes on the Luna property in 1995, they instantly recognized the magic and the amazing potential of its estate vineyard, perfectly located along the Silverado Trail. They bought the property and followed their dream, building a winery that paid tribute to the varietals that set Napa Valley apart.
The original founders brought tradition engrained by Italian ancestors, to embrace local processes that would sustain a deep and abiding respect for the Napa region. They were the first family-owned winery to plant the visionary Italian varietal of Pinot Grigio on the estate vineyard, on the eastern hillside of the Silverado Trail.
