The 2018 Bernardus “Marinus Vineyard Marinus Red” 750 ml is a refined and commanding expression of California Bordeaux-style winemaking from the estate vineyard in the upper Carmel Valley AVA. With a blend of all five classic Bordeaux red varieties sourced from the meticulously tended Marinus Vineyard, this wine showcases both power and elegance—a superb gift for the serious wine lover. The Marinus Vineyard’s unique terroir—west-facing, cooled by Pacific breezes, and rooted in decomposed granite and sandy loam soils at higher elevation—gives the fruit vibrant structure and distinctive minerality.
